A Co Tyrone-based accident management company has opened a new office after doubling its turnover in the last 12 months.

Based near Dungannon, Shield Accident Management specialises in services for road traffic collisions.

Following rapid growth since its formation in 2018, the firm has opened a new administrative centre in Moy.

Director Monica Hughes said the repurposing of a former derelict listed building in the village is expected to create five new jobs by the end of the year.

“Our new offices take up two floors of an existing building that we have completely refurbished inside and out,” she said.

“The listed building lay derelict in The Moy for many years before we took it over and breathed new life into it. This regeneration is great for the area and crucially it gives Shield the room we need for future expansion.

“To use motoring parlance, we certainly are in the fast lane of expansion right now and are going from strength to strength, it’s a real milestone in our development plans.”
