We're all as pleased as punch up here at Rocket HQ. Hot on the heels of the Electric Works win, which was reported in illustrious publications like Design Week, we have yet another big announcement. So here's our latest press release in all it's glory:

Rocket has won a place on the Health and Safety Executive’s UK roster to provide web design and development services until 2010. The Sheffield creative agency was delighted to become one of only a handful of agencies across the country selected to form the newly created roster. The position was secured after a competitive tendering process that was conducted over the summer. Rocket, whose approach is summed up by their phrase ‘creativity distilled', have been creating quite a stir, helping attract attention right across the UK. They offer a wide range of services from design, marketing and web development. Rocket's founder, leading Yorkshire designer Andy Barratt commented:

"This is great news for Rocket. We have been building an enviable reputation for the way we approach web design and development and it's really pleasing to see our skills being recognised at a national level."

"The HSE have some interesting plans for using the Internet and it's wonderful for us to be able to add our expertise to bring these plans to life." The HSE Website is the destination site for workplace health and safety in the UK and the busiest occupational health website in Europe. . The creation of the new web roster signals a  commitment to build on what has been achieved so far.

Rocket was chosen for the new design and development and the ongoing maintenance elements of the roster which runs from September 2007 till 2010.
