About Us
The People Behind the Names
Our founder, a disabled person from birth, has a wealth of experience within the field of disability. This coupled with his energy and knowledge within the fields of Equalities Legislation and H&S regulations, as well as 20 years of practice, provided Gravelles Ltd with a solid foundation from which it has grown. His ethical approach to business and relationships is a cornerstone of what Gravelles has become today.
Our founder and director
Robert’s wife took over the directorship of Gravelles Ltd In 2016. After playing an increasingly pivotal role in driving the company’s profile and developing relationships with National Organisations from a range of sectors, including NHS and Government, to retail and hospitality providers, Rebecca talking over the reigns has evolved Gravelles Ltd into the ethical model that can be seen today; as a one-stop shop for H&S.
Although his expertise is often called upon, Robert currently holds a consultative role within Gravelles Ltd. simply because he is now sharing his experience more broadly, leading on change within National Organisations and Government, addressing the needs of the disabled community.
