This month we have a Special Offer on our 100 Gallon (454 Litre) Diesel Box.
Generally, the Plant Waterers are manufactured as a highway model, with suspension, mudguards, brakes and lights, although site models are available if required. The units are fitted with a Honda petrol engine pump with 30 ft of hose and a ’shepherds crook’ for watering hanging baskets.
Easily manouverable, these units are ideal for getting water from site to site!
Our Plant Waterer model is particularly popular with local councils and was primarily designed for watering hanging baskets. However our customers purchase these for watering trees, plants and shrubs and other general horticultural usage.
Apart from Bowsers, our MD’s other love is…..wait for it – Ferrets!!
She currently has seventeen rescue ferrets – living the life of luxury in the Ferret Hilton (purpose built outbuildings at her home in Whitworth).
These Ferrets have all been rescued from Hull and East Riding Ferret Rescue, with the last three – Eric, Ernie and Keith, being found dumped on the roadside near Doncaster.
At Hull and East Riding Ferret Rescue, Jill and Mick work tirelessly to help abandoned Ferrets find new homes, and we sponsor them in their quest.
For further details go to http://beehive.thisishull.co.uk/default.asp?WCI=SiteHome&ID=3735
Jill and Mick hold various fun day events, with Ferret racing, etc to help raise money for their Ferret boarders. So all Ferret lovers – why not come along and join in the fun?
We at Bowser Supply are proud to support the GEM Appeal, Registered Charity No. 1040083.
The GEM Appeal was founded by Karen Hoather in 1994 for the research and treatment of rare life threatening genetic and metabolic disorders in children. Karen sadly lost her two young boys Simon and Mark Hoather from one such genetic disorder and now works tirelessly to raise funds to support further research.
For more information about the GEM Appeal and the tremendous work that they do please visit their website www.gemappeal.org.uk
The GEM Appeal patron Denise Welch and her husband Tim Healy host a number of special fund raising events which we at Bowser Supply always endeavor to attend. Below are an assortment of photo’s from such events.
Whilst Wendy, our Managing Director was on Holiday in Spain, she heard on the local radio station that there was a dog sanctuary in need of some help. The well at the sanctuary had run dry and so it was struggling to keep all of the 200+ animals watered. Although the sanctuary were not asking for funds, they were desperate for people to send them water.
Being a dog lover herself, Wendy got straight on the phone when she arrived back in Rochdale and offered to send them a water bowser courtesy of Bowser Supply.
So the race was on to get the water bowser to Spain. Wendy started to ring around all of our customers who send machinery abroad, and someone gave us the name of a company called Brinor. Wendy spoke to a lovely lady named Sue who helped tremendously and agreed to take the Bowser over to Spain.
However once the water bowser was over there we had to find a means of getting it to the sanctuary which was up in the hills. Wendy contacted the local radio station and put out a cry for help for anybody that could tow the Bowser up the hills to the sanctuary. Luckily the radio station was contacted by a lovely man called Adriaan, who arranged to meet Wendy at the port, collect the bowser and follow Wendy up to the sanctuary. Eventually after an epic journey, which invovled driving a couple of miles through a dry riverbed they found the sanctuary.
When Wendy arrived at the sactuary she was amazed at all of the animals and the fantastic volunteers. There were a group of Swedish girls who kindly help out for months at a time. They even told us that they were not bathing at the moment because they were saving all the water for the animals.
Whilst we were there delivering the bowser a water tanker turned up, which was a donation from the local radio station. However the hose from the tanker was not long enough to discharge the water into the old swimming pool where the water was to be kept until it was needed. Eventually after searching the sanctuary we were able to cobble together enough extra hose and old guttering to reach the swimming pool.
The water bowser that we donated will enable Kim and her husband Stan to fill it up in the village and then take it back to the sanctuary for all the cats and dogs. And you never know the Swedish girls may eventually even get a shower.
It seems appropriate that the first piece of news on our new website, is news about the new website itself! As we continue to grow and improve our services we take on board a lot of the feedback we receive from not only clients, but our own day to day experiences and we’ve used that to provide you with a better website service, the new look aside here are a few of the key features:
PDF Brochures
Not only does it save you time, it saves us time and it’s also environmentally friendly. We now supply all of the technical data-sheets for our products directly on the website, so rather than having to request them from us, you have full access to them day or night.
Image Gallery
Whilst we provide many ’standard’ products we also produce a lot of bespoke items as each client and their requirements are different. Now each product has its own image gallery, so you can see exactly what we produce along with the varying bespoke additions we’ve made.
News & Events
As existing clients will know, we’re very passionate about our products and the personal service we provide. Helping us along with that is the new News & Events section (which you’re reading now!). This will enable us to keep you up to date on the latest Bowser Supply news including any promotions we run and events we attend.
Ultimately customer service is at the core of all our business activities and we hope you find the new website more useful than ever before; remember to check back regularly for news updates, events and offers – we look forward to hearing from you soon.
