Thomas Brooke died after the collision with a JCB wheel loader in 2019, a court hears.

A family-run wood recycling company has been fined after a father-of-one was killed in a collision with a JCB.

The company pleaded guilty to breaching Regulation 17 of the Workplace Act 1992 in relation to the incident. He said the firm had changed its health and safety consultant the year before the incident, but said that meant it had been "starting from scratch". At the hearing, Mr Maxwell-Scott also read a victim impact statement from Mr Brooke's widow Jessica, who said: "The pain and suffering of our loss has been enormous."David James, representing the company, said it had been seeking further health and safety advice before the incident, and had sought recommendations before appointing an expert with "hands-on" experience in minimising risk in the waste management industry.
