# CEA's Year in Review featured in the Plant Planet Feature Book

    Beth Abbott  ·   1 minute read

Developed in partnership with the CEA, [Construction Plant-hire Association](https://www.cpa.uk.net/), and [International Powered Access Federation](https://www.ipaf.org/en-gb), the [Plant Planet](https://www.plant-planet.co.uk/) Feature Book reflects on the achievements and progress made over the past year, and what's on the horizon for the year ahead.

 

The CEA’s Year in Review highlights our strides in digital transformation, membership growth, international engagement, and industry advocacy. The past year has been a period of real momentum for the association, from launching a new website to delivering key policy initiatives and strengthening industry collaboration.

 

A major focus has been tackling the industry's skills challenge, including our work with [globalbridge](https://thecea.org.uk/connecting-talent-and-opportunity-with-gb), which connects the next generation with careers in construction and engineering. We’ve also strengthened our support for employees across the sector by introducing a range of employee benefits through our partnership with [Personal Group](https://thecea.org.uk/workforce), which helps businesses attract and retain talent.

 

We’re proud to see the CEA’s work recognised in this publication, alongside a feature on the CEA's [PlantWorx 2025](https://thecea.org.uk/plantworx-2025), the UK’s largest working construction event. The Feature Book is packed with industry insights, making it a valuable read for our members and the wider sector.
