Winners of the Excellence in Fire & Emergency Awards 2017
The 2017 Excellence in Fire & Emergency Awards, held on December 8th at One Great George Street, London, celebrated innovative practices, initiatives, partnerships, technology and influential individuals in the fire and emergency services. Hosted by London Fire Brigade’s Steve Apter and Dr Sabrina Cohen-Hatton, with the voiceover provided by the voice of University Challenge, Roger Tilling, the awards were a wonderful opportunity to recognise and celebrate the hard work and achievements of the fire and emergency services.
