Woodford Engineering Consultancy wins Queen’s Award

On 24th July, Woodford Engineering Consultancy had the great honour of welcoming the Vice Lord-Lieutenant of Greater Manchester, Paul Griffiths DL to our head office in Cheadle Hulme.

During his visit, the Vice Lord-Lieutenant had the opportunity to meet many of our engineers and learn a little about what WEC does in aircraft systems development.
