We’re thrilled to have started sponsoring a local primary school – Harlow Green Primary School – this year, and have started off by launching a Road Safety Competition for students to take part in. The winner will receive a custom made sign to be displayed proudly at the school gates and there will also be a factory tour for them and the runners-up!

Lots more to come in 2026 including a Wayfinding Competition and volunteer days by our staff to help the school enhance their SEN and Forest School areas. We’re excited to see some young faces exploring our facility and look forward to introducing them to how the magic happens!
We’re celebrating the end of the year by achieving a GOLD Better Health at Work Award!
Our internal Health Advocate and Mental Health Advocate teams have worked incredibly hard in 2025 to activate campaigns that help support a healthier and happy workforce. These types of initiatives continue to help drive our ESG activities within the business and offer employees the opportunity to learn about ways to feel healthier at work and home.

Well done to our team for volunteering their time to improving #teamastley’s health and we look forward to what you come up with for us in the new year!

The company’s Marketing Manager, Lucy Wright and Procurement Manager, Ruth Driver were delighted to attend the inaugural Women in Signs and Graphics event sponsored by Project Display in September.
Bringing together women from within the industry, the event offered Lucy and Ruth the chance to enjoy networking with other women who work within signage and graphics, sharing experiences and highlighting unique challenges faced within the sector.
A superb event organised by Izabella Ivanovici and Sarah Fenna. And a huge thank you to sponsor Project Displays for hosting the event. Our team are looking forward to the next one already!
That’s the Great North Run done for another year and we want to offer a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to three of our own on completing the challenge. Sam, Ash and Adam took on the run this Sunday and helped raise vital funds for some very worthwhile charities.

Well done to everyone who ran and fundraised this year. It looked like a great day!
We’re thrilled to have up another GOLD in the Rollout Category at the Sign & Wrap Awards for our partnership with Staycity Group, helping complete their national rebrand programme.

Our teams worked incredibly hard on this programme with the client, collaborating closely on the development of the initial concept right through to the logistics on securing planning approvals and installations in busy town and city centres across the UK.

This programme demonstrates the sheer breadth of expertise at Astley and we’re so pleased that their hard work has been acknowledged by the industry.
“We’re thrilled with the outstanding work Astley Signs have delivered as part of our recent rebranding initiative at Staycity Group. Their expertise, attention to detail, and commitment to excellence ensured that every piece of signage perfectly reflected our updated brand identity,” Jason Delany, Staycity Group
