Manual Handling Awareness

Ray Gibbs began delivering training programmes for the EEF in 1976. Ace Safety Services initially sold safety equipment until the name OSTAS was adopted for the training side of the operation. Ray’s business eventually outgrew its original premises and relocated to Southam’s Industrial Park. The business took advantage of the first tranche of European Union directives. With consequent growth enabling the acquisition of a forklift training business called Training and Safety Services Ltd.

OSTAS eventually merged with a Health and Safety training business called The Key Consultancy which brought together two recognised occupational training operations. Raymond Gibbs is active in the business as a Director and shareholder. Meanwhile, Craig delivers training for a number of clients and has the day-to-day reins of the business as Managing Director.
