Celebrating 60 Years of Bardsleys – A Family Legacy in Atherton

Monday 8th September 2025 Get our latest news into your inbox
Ciceley Commercials was delighted to join the celebrations for Bardsleys’ 60th anniversary, marking six decades since David Bardsley first founded the family-run garage and recovery business in Atherton.

The event was a real celebration of community and legacy, with professional photography capturing the day, a pizza van serving up fresh slices, a DJ keeping the atmosphere lively, and a charity raffle to round things off. We were pleased to contribute by donating a Ciceley jacket for the raffle.

It’s been our pleasure to work with Bardsleys recently, most notably handing over two new Mercedes-Benz Citan vans to support their operations. Seeing these vehicles on display among the anniversary celebrations was a proud moment for both our teams.

The Bardsleys family put on a fantastic day, with lots of displays set up to showcase their history, growth, and commitment to service – looking nothing short of amazing.

From their beginnings in 1964 under David Bardsley’s vision to the thriving business they are today, Bardsleys continues to stand as a trusted name in garage services and vehicle recovery. We’re proud to celebrate alongside them and look forward to seeing their next chapter unfold.
