Fire & Security Association (FSA) calls on industry to nominate leading figures.
The entire fire and security industry is being urged to nominate individuals, who have made an outstanding contribution to the sector, for this yearβs FSA Awards.
The two awards, which will be presented for the first time at this yearβs industry-leading IFSEC βSecurity and Fire Excellence Awardsβ, are as follows:
- The Peter Greenwood Security Award β recognises individuals who have made an outstanding contribution to the security systems industry. Last yearβs winner was Simon Banks of CSL Dualcom.
- The Ian Marsh Fire Award β recognises individuals who demonstrate enthusiasm and selfless concern for the fire and emergency systems industry. Last yearβs winner was Geoff Teader (pictured centre) of Amalgamated Ltd.
Head of the FSA Steve Martin commented: βThe FSA is delighted to announce that nominations are open for our sector-leading awards, and we urge anyone involved in the fire and security industry to put forward deserving candidates.
βOver the years we have had many very deserving winners of both the Peter Greenwood Security Award and the Ian Marsh Fire Award, and we look forward to another duo of industry champions gaining recognition this year.β
The nominations will be reviewed by a panel of six judges, which will include FSA representatives as well as leading figures from across the industry, who will be announced in due course.
The FSA is an official media partner at this yearβs IFSECβs βSecurity and Fire Excellence Awardsβ, which is being held on 23 November in London. The winners of both FSA awards (plus one guest each) will be given free places on the FSAβs table on the evening.
The Security and Fire Excellence Awards ceremony is the largest and most prestigious across the entire industry, and will be attended by business leaders, clients and other stakeholders. The event is being hosted this year by top comedian Jimmy Carr.
The deadline for FSA Award nominations is Wednesday 21 September at midday.
