FSA Awards open for nominations 

The fire, emergency and security systems industry is being invited to nominate individuals who have changed the sector for the better for this year’s FSA Awards.

The two awards, which are being presented at the IFSEC Security and Fire Excellence Awards on 20 November 2019 at the Park Lane Hilton in London, are as follows:

The Peter Greenwood Security Award recognises individuals who have made an outstanding contribution to the security systems industry. Last year’s winner was Pat Allen, of Abel Alarm Company Ltd.

The Ian Marsh Fire Award recognises individuals who demonstrate enthusiasm and selfless concern for the fire and emergency systems industry. Last year’s winner was Kevin Griffin, of Logic Systems Fire and Security Ltd.

FSA chair and managing director of Lindum Fire Services Ltd Tom Brookes commented, “The FSA is delighted to once again hold these awards. The sector is full of outstanding work and we urge anyone involved in fire, emergency and security to put forward their best and brightest for well-deserved recognition.

“There have been many deserving winners of both the Peter Greenwood Security Award and the Ian Marsh Fire Award, and we look forward to recognising another duo of industry champions this year.”

The FSA consists of members of electrotechnical and engineering trade association ECA and Scottish electrical trade body SELECT – although the awards are open to the entire industry.

The FSA is an official partner at IFSEC’s Security and Fire Excellence Awards, which is the most prestigious event on the industry calendar. The winners of both FSA awards (plus one guest each) will be given free places on the FSA’s table on the evening.

The deadline for FSA Award nominations is Friday 13 September at 5pm. The nominations will be reviewed by an independent panel of judges in the autumn. For more details, or to nominate an individual for either award, click here.
