Outstanding officers win prestigious national industry awards

The national winners of the British Security Industry Association (BSIA)'s Annual Security Personnel Awards were recognised today in an impressive ceremony attended by many key individuals from the security industry.

The awards, which celebrate the excellent work and vital contribution that those working in the security industry are making across the country, were presented by Sir Paul Stephenson QPM, Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Service, during the BSIA's annual luncheon, which was sponsored by Securitas Security Services Ltd and was held at the London Hilton on Park Lane.

BSIA Chief Executive, James Kelly, comments: "Each of the winners have shown extreme bravery and dedication to their jobs and have often gone beyond the call of duty. Today's presentation has praised the achievements of both individuals and teams who have risked their lives to ensure the safety of their clients and the public. Each and every one of them is a testament to our industry and they should be applauded."

The awards were presented in the following categories: Best Newcomer, Outstanding Act, Best Use of Technology, Best Team and Service to the Customer.

The BSIA would like to thank Camberford Law plc - specialist insurance brokers to the BSIA and the security industry - for sponsoring the awards for the twelfth successive year.
