BICSc Annual Awards 2022 winners revealed

* BICSc-Awards-2022.jpgOutstanding achievements and standards of excellence within the professional cleaning industry were celebrated and recognised at the 2022 British Institute of Cleaning Science Annual Awards last week.

Celebrating the exceptional standards and leading lights of the global cleaning community were guests from across the industry who attended the glamorous black tie event, which was staged at The Forest of Arden Hotel & Country Club.

Widely regarded as the one of the industry's leading annual awards events, the prestigious evening was hosted by TV presenter and former England international rugby player Martin Bayfield.

The celebrity host announced the winners of a range of accolades awarded at the ceremony, which had been preceded by the Industry Insights conference held earlier in the day.

Big-hearted guests at the event once again helped to raise hundreds of pounds for the chairman's chosen charity, Dementia UK.

"We were delighted to once again be able to recognise and reward the outstanding achievements of those operating within the professional cleaning industry,” says Neil Spencer-Cook, chief operating officer at BICSc.

"Our Annual Awards provide the perfect opportunity to shine a spotlight on the deserving winners and honour industry excellence. The standard of entries this year was exceptional and we congratulate those who received accolades for their excellent work within the sector. The evening was a great success and we look forward to next year's event!"

Amongst the award winners were the University of Northampton, presented with the Outstanding Corporate Member of the Year award, with the judges acknowledging: "The University of Northampton holds everything that BICSc stands for, at the heart of its practice. It is clear the service is run with staff safety and fulfilment as the biggest priorities."

For the second successive year the Excellence in Training & Assessment (International) accolade was presented to Emrill Services, with judges' comments highlighting how "Emrill shouts about the importance of training, the achievement of its team and creating a safer working environment for everyone".

New for 2022 was the inaugural award of Outstanding Client Commitment by a cleaning operative which was won by Donna Harris of the University of Northampton. Judges’ comments highlighted how "Donna's commitment to the client underpins everything that she does. Donna is a fantastic advocate of this amazing industry... the standard of her work was incredible".

Other winners of the night included Rhys Goodard of Vinci Facilities who received the Outstanding Candidate of the Year accolade with judges paying tribute to how "Rhys has overcome many personal difficulties and a time of adversity, managing to gain invaluable qualifications, increase his working hours and just recently has used his learned skills and qualifications to be promoted".
