The judges have finished deliberating and the shortlisted entries for HEFMA’s 2024 annual awards have been announced.
We had some fantastic entries, which really showcase the diversity of the work that our Estates & Facilities teams are involved with, and the commitment and passion of the many individuals involved. This has, of course, made the task of the judges incredibly difficult. The winners will be announced at the gala dinner, to be held at the Telford International Centre during the National Leadership Forum on the evening of May 9. This year, a special guest will be joining us for the Awards dinner. Stuart Pearce, top sportsman, former captain of England’s national football team, and an electrician by trade, to help celebrate the achievements of all of our shortlisted nominees, and of course our winners.
Please do get behind your teams or colleagues if they’ve made the shortlist, share across social media and celebrate their achievements. It’s great recognition to be nominated for an award, and it’s even better to be shortlisted, especially when the calibre of entries is as high as it has been this year.
For more detail of each of the shortlisted entries, please see the May/June issue of our Pulse magazine.
Thank you to everyone who took the time and effort to submit an entry.
