THROUGH the letters page we appealed for relatives of the original directors of GE Bridge and Co Ltd to come forward as this Saturday, June 18 we are celebrating 135 years of serving Bournemouth with surgical, medical and mobility products.
The response was amazing – we were able to trace three relatives of our directors.
We were also delighted with the response from the public, who helped us with pictures and various old adverts.
Thank you to the Echo for your help, it was much appreciated.
