The Property Care Association (PCA) has recognised the individuals and businesses that have excelled across a variety of categories over the past 12 months at its annual awards ceremony.
The PCA Best Practice Awards Dinner 2024 was held at the Telford International Centre, following the PCA’s Property Care and Structural Waterproofing Conferences.
More than 20 awards were presented during the ceremony, marking achievements across training, staff development and best practice.
PCA Chief Executive Sarah Garry hosted the event. She said: “The Property Care Awards showcase the best of the best in our industry, and I was delighted to host the event for the first time.
“The conferences and awards are an opportunity to celebrate the work of both new and long-established members and shine a spotlight on the rising stars of the industry.
“Congratulations to all the winners and those shortlisted and Highly Commended. As the awards are judged by entirely independent judges, it’s a huge achievement to be recognised at the awards and is certainly something to be celebrated.”
The awards were sponsored by Safeguard Europe, Astute Insurance, CITB, Delta Membrane Systems, Government Business Magazine, JN Newton Waterproofing, QANW, Restoration UK, Sava, Shepherd PR, Stallard Kane and Wykamol.
