I found this out yesterday through a friend, and was truly amazed. They've only been at Goodwood since 1997 though. The company started out at Shoreham.

I worked for CEGA for nearly two years, and left them on extremely good terms with the offer of going back whenever I wanted. However, when I called a couple of months ago to follow this up, I was told that the company was undergoing a restructure, and that they would not be taking on anywhere near as many new staff as they had done in the past.

There was no mention that they were leaving Goodwood, though. I'm amazed, and I'd be really interested to know the reasons behind it. Their air ambulance fleet is based there (or at least it was all the time that Goodwood was their HQ, I don't know if this is still the case). It's a shame. It's such a nice place to work, especially this time of year.
