“My father sadly passed away 7 years ago after a long battle with dementia at the age of 72,” says Mark Simpson, chairman of Simpson Group.
He adds: “For most of the previous 10 years he was unable to communicate with his family effectively, and struggled to recognise us.
The business he left has a positive impact on many families in our community. This is his legacy”
“Bill Simpson was an intelligent and energetic man who founded Simpson Group, and laid the foundations for the company it is today. I personally have a lot to thank him for.
“The business he left has a positive impact on many families in our community. This is his legacy.”
In September, Simpson Group will also take part in the Great North Run in memory of colleague Graham McGregor and in support of the Great North Air Ambulance.
