Bobby commented: “I am really pleased to add GKR Scaffolding to our team for 2017. My aim for the season is to continually promote the company whilst driving to the best of my ability in the hope of winning this season’s championship. Ultimately, I wish to create a ‘better future’ for both myself and GKR. These guys have given me a fantastic platform to work from and can only see things reaching new heights in the future.”

This year, GKR is focusing on raising the profile of construction amongst young people, whilst investing in our employees and the communities we are part of in the South East. We are very proud to be working with Bobby this season and having him represent our brand.”
