Pointer was pleased to support Crossroads Cares in Perth with the installation of a new Ajax fire and intruder alarm system at its recently opened office.
Crossroads Cares (Perth & Kinross) is a charitable organisation dedicated to providing high-quality respite care and support for unpaid carers across Perth and Kinross. The new wireless Ajax system combines fire detection and security monitoring within a single platform, allowing users to view alerts and manage the system remotely via a smartphone, tablet or laptop. The wireless solution was chosen to maximise protection whilst minimising disruption to the existing infrastructure allowing Crossroads full remote access to their systems.
Earlier this month, we were honoured to attend the official opening of the charity’s new office, led by First Minister John Swinney.
Representing Pointer at the event were Chris Laird, Sales Director, and Brian Cassells, Scotland Fire Branch Manager. They joined Crossroads Cares’ Chief Executive Gary Hay, Chair David Lindsay and staff and other guests to celebrate this significant milestone for the organisation.
Speaking after the event, Chris Laird said:
“We are delighted to have supported Crossroads Cares in Perth with the installation of its new fire and security system. Organisations such as Crossroads Cares play a vital role in supporting local communities, and it was a privilege to be involved in this project and attend the official opening of the new office. We wish Gary, David and the entire team every success for the future.”
Gary Hay replied:
“The move to our new permanent home at Bertha Park, Perth is a significant milestone for Crossroads Cares and one we are very proud to have achieved. It was made possible through the commitment of our trustees and staff, together with the support of an excellent network of suppliers and partners. Pointer played an important part in that, providing a modern fire and security system that meets our needs and supports the way we operate. We are very grateful for their professionalism and expert advice, and for the contribution of everyone involved in delivering the move successfully. With the opening now behind us, it is very much business as usual, focused on delivering and developing high-quality care and support across Perth and Kinross.”
