A CHARITY which supports military veterans across the region has received a new printing machine from a Colne-based firm.

Salute, with headquarters in Burnley, has taken delivery of a new printing machine courtesy of Holker Network Solutions and global print giants Ricoh.

“This fantastic offer came right out of the blue,” said Daniel Hutchinson, founder of Salute. “We attended a launch night to celebrate the partnership between Holker Network Solutions and Ricoh and suddenly we were being offered a top printer/copier free of charge."

Matthew Metcalfe, managing director of Holker Network Solutions, said: “We were really impressed when we heard first hand the great work carried out by Salute and both Ricoh and ourselves wanted to show support.

“Hopefully, we have saved them money and also helped to further improve their day-to-day operation.”
