Househam Sprayers
Househam Sprayers is the UK's largest manufacturer and supplier of top quality self-propelled and trailed agricultural crop sprayers and amenity sprayers.
Househam Sprayers
Designed, built and tested in Woodhall Spa, Lincolnshire, our range of self-propelled machines uses ground-breaking technology to deliver a specification not often found on other machines available in the crop spraying market.
Furthermore, all Househam self-propelled machines have been designed with low weight and even weight distribution in mind. This minimises soil compaction and allows the machine to be used throughout the year, minimising weather delays and reducing the risk of diseases taking hold.
Househam is dedicated to producing leading edge technology which is designed to offer maximum efficiency and ' future-proof' our ever expanding range of sprayers. Customers are supported around the globe with an experienced network of service engineers and dealers', ensuring help and assistance is but a phone call away. Providing world class technical innovation, research and development and testing and manufacturing services to deliver exciting, effective and efficient concepts for our global customers.
With over four decades of success within the agricultural sprayer market, Househam is able to combine cutting edge technology devised by some of the industry's best engineers with precision manufacturing and speed to market.
The Vision of Househam
The challenges faced by agriculture are massive. The ever increasing world population relies on the food agriculture produces and this represents a challenge for the industry, globally, unlike any other industry has hitherto faced.
However, bringing more and more land into agricultural use can have detrimental effects of the environment by encouraging deforestation, which releases more CO2 into the atmosphere, and the draining of natural wetlands both of which increase the risk of flooding.
By protecting and improving the vast areas of soil currently under cultivation and maximising its productive capacity with advances in plant breeding, nutrient management, crop protection products and innovative application technology, we should be able to go a long way towards producing higher volumes of food which is healthier, safer and produced in a more environmentally friendly and sustainable manner.
Our aim is to use new and innovative technology to enable us, as leading manufacturers of crop sprayers, to produce machines which enable growers not only to apply crop protection products very accurately, but also to help protect soil structure by reducing soil compaction. Our links with the leading agricultural research bodies and our continuing dialogue with practical farmers and contractors helps us to produce leading edge crop sprayers which meet the needs of users around the world.

Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust
Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust provides acute hospital services and community services to a population of more than 440,000 people across North and North East Lincolnshire and the East Riding of Yorkshire.
Our annual budget is circa £300million and we have 850 beds across our three hospitals: the Diana, Princess of Wales Hospital in Grimsby; Scunthorpe General Hospital; and Goole and District Hospital. Every year we see more than 135,000 people in our emergency departments, deliver more than 4,500 babies, carry out around 30,000 operations, treat 120,000 inpatients and book 400,000 outpatient appointments.
Our Trust is one of the largest employers in Northern Lincolnshire and continues to grow and invest in staff as well as patients. In fact, we’ve recently been crowned winner of the Employer of the Year award at the Talent for Care awards.
We might be small and friendly, but we encourage our staff to think big. Innovation is encouraged and supported – an example of this is our award-winning unique in-house computer system we have developed, called the WebV Clinical Portal, which digitally monitors and manages patient records. We have also developed a fresh approach to recruitment which enables us to make contact with overseas networks and candidates within Europe and beyond. This has positioned the Trust as a potential place to work on a global scale within the international job market and we are attracting professionals from around the world to work on our wards.
Our vision and values are central to the way we do things on a daily basis. They set out what our patients can expect from us at every step of their journey with us, whether that is on the phone, in writing or face-to-face.
Apprenticeship Programme
Our Apprenticeship programme will focus on both your academic and professional development over the course your 13 month apprenticeship. You will be working in establishment teams who will contribute directly or indirectly to quality, patient focused care.
You can expect monthly reviews with both your line manager and your assessor to check in with your progress throughout the apprenticeship programme. This will provide you with the support that you need to aid your development. In between your monthly reviews you will be working closely with your mentor who will support you in your department on a day to day basis.
The Trust apprenticeship programme is also supported by the Trust apprentice network which is held on a monthly basis. Here you will come together with your fellow apprentices across the Trust to discuss your experience and focus on your development as a group.
Together we care, we, respect, we deliver is our shared vision and values which form a declaration of our personal and organisational purpose and intent. It was created with input from staff at every level, from cleaners and ward clerks to nurses and consultants and our Trust Board have pledged their commitment to delivering services in line with this vision.
