New appointment for Yorkshire MBE
Emerging IT firm, Kaleton Ltd, has appointed Yorkshire business stalwart Keith Madeley MBE as chairman.
Keith joins the Tadcaster based company as it embarks on ambitious plans to expand within the region’s nursing and care home sector.
The Bradford-born businessman, known affectionately as “Mr. Yorkshire”, was recognised earlier this month in the Queen’s New Year’s Honours list. Mr. Madeley was awarded an MBE for service to the communities of Yorkshire.
Mr. Madeley, who lives in Leeds, has over 30 years of business experience and is a well known member of the Yorkshire business community. He is currently chairman of The Prince’s Trust for Yorkshire and the Humber as well as the Yorkshire Society and the Duke of York’s Community Initiative.
“Kaleton is a young, exciting company with great growth potential”, said Keith.
“Kaleton’s expanding portfolio of IT, software and internet services is rapidly establishing the company in the nursing and care home sector. As Chairman I look forward to building on Kaleton’s position as a key service provider in this growing sector whilst expanding into other markets. I am confident that the company has a very bright future”, he added.
Kaleton’s founder James Fell said, “We are delighted to have appointed Keith as chairman. Keith was particularly impressed with Kaleton’s portfolio of cutting edge IT products and how these can benefit other businesses. He brings a wealth of business know-how which will be invaluable in ensuring we achieve our expansion plans.”
