A DATE has been set for the next staff reunion of former and current Relyon employees, the Wellington mattress manufacturer and bedding firm.
The third annual reunion will take place at Wellington Football Club on Friday, November 29, from 2pm.
After proving popular for the past two years, the event is again being organised by Jeanette Bird who invites anyone who worked for Relyon or Pritex to come along.
Jeanette said: “Anyone who has worked for Relyon or Pritex – or still does – is welcome to come along.
“It’s a great way to catch up with former colleagues and talk about old times.”
The event costs £10 to attend, which includes a buffet, and all proceeds will go to St Margaret’s Hospice.
Call Jeanette on 07712 575668 to book, or email jeanettebird1956@gmail.com.
Relyon was founded in 1858 by a Somerset family of wool merchants, who developed 100% wool mattresses.
The name Relyon was given to the company as it had a reputation for delivering a night's sleep you could "rely on".
