Stephen Metcalfe MP shows his support for Tractor Plant family day


Stephen Metcalfe, local MP for South Basildon and East Thurrock, recently joined Basildon’s Case New Holland (CNH) at their Family Day to thank their employees for their hard work.

The Day gave employees the opportunity to bring their families to their workplace and to enjoy a range of events laid on by the Management including tours of the plant, engineering activities, and of course, rides on some of the many tractors produced there.

It was also a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the impressive landmark of 50 years of uninterrupted tractor production in Basildon.

The local MP commented: “It was brilliant to join Colin Larkin and all at the tractor plant for their Family Day and to have a tour of the production line. There was so much on offer for people of all ages and I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did.” 

“I would like to thank all employees past and present for their hard work, for boosting the local economy, and for the work they do with young people.  I am extremely proud to tell people of their fantastic track record of production in Basildon.”
