Formerly the Perkins Long Service Club, the Club's purpose is to maintain an association of the longer serving members of the Company to engage with employees - past and present - aligning to the Company's code of conduct and values. We recognize employee service and successes, arrange Club activities to celebrate friendships and stay connected.
Membership is open to any current or former employee of Perkins (worldwide), or of Caterpillar who has been based at the Peterborough facility for a part of their employment, and who has a total of 10 years of service with the company. The service does not have to be continuous.

As of 7th April 2026, Ken Tinkler
We are sad to advise Club member and former Past President (in1985) Ken Tinkler passed away on 5th April, aged 99, he would have been 100 in September. Ken worked in Quality and after retirement in1986 he came back to become a tour guide. We will advise when funeral details available, but as Ken had moved to Birmingham to be near his daughter, the funeral may not be local.
As of 26th March 2026
Welcome to the Club's new website. Yesterday at the AGM, the Club's new name was proposed and passed. This is the new website with a new 'look and feel' to go with it. We hope you like it. All the content from the previous website has been carried over to this one. The previous website will run in parallel until the end of 2026.
