May & Baker Computer Room

A Memory of Dagenham.

I have fond memories of the enormous factory in the 1980's and driving around it at night with a van stuffed full of heavy backup computer tape boxes which needed fire safeing. Site had a great social club and not a bad canteen.I think thursday night shifts they had steak on the menu if my memory serves me well. Bit of a long walk from the factory to the tube station despite it being over the road.I paid into a pension when there ,does anybody know if it can be claimed as the company seems to have been taken over several times after i left in the late 80's.Does anybody have their M&B pension being paid out ? or have we all lost our contributions ?.Any update appreciated. Martin

Thank you Alan, quick update and for everybody's info re the M&B pension, Sanofi the last company in the long line of companies in the M&B final demise did have my details etc, so contact them if you need pension advice etc .Did not help me in the long run, apparently i took the money out ? I cant remember I was young and foolish then, but its nice to know ones details are kept safe .
