Industry's premier awards sees record entry levels
Closing last Friday (9th September), this year's Highways Heroes Awards have seen record entries with well in excess of 150 entries.
Recognising the heroic actions of individuals who have coped admirably in the face of adversity, the awards place at the Grosvenor House Hotel on December 7th the awards recognise those who have gone above and beyond their duty, to help someone or improve a situation, either in the communities they work in or to unconditionally support fellow workers in their team.
Speaking about the unprecedented level of entries, co-founder Freya Wells said,
"As always, the Highways Heroes awards never cease to amaze.
"The record levels of entry show just how much our industry values this event and everything it stands for.
"It is a testament to our industry that we hold the act of recognising our unsung heroes as such a priority, although I must say it leaves our judges with an incredibly difficult task."
The Highways Heroes Awards come after a time of unprecedented change not only in our industry, but as part of our everyday lives. We believe this is the ideal time to celebrate the hard work and success of our workers, who have coped admirably in the face of adversity, to recognise the heroic actions of them which, until now, has gone unnoticed.
Whether its saving someone from danger or risk of injury, helping a member of the public to safety, or supporting a team member in the face of abuse, you or a member of your team could be named a Highways Hero as part of this new and unique awards.
The Highways Heroes will be judged by their peers, led by Kevin Robinson, Chief Executive of Safer Highways and David Lowery, Chairman of the organisation as well as an esteemed panel of industry leaders and crucially former winners who know what it means to be a Highway Hero.
