Building on success at top-quality awards
South Yorkshire & Humber local authorities held their third annual Building Excellence Awards, on Thursday 4th March, 2010 at Forest Pines near Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire.
The awards recognise building excellence across the region through 2009.
Builders and developers undertaking projects in Sheffield, Rotherham, Doncaster, North Lincolnshire, Hull and Barnsley were all eligible to take part in this highly respected, prestigious, Building Control Awards Scheme.
The projects were judged on a range of criteria including compliance with the Building Regulations, accessibility and inclusive environment, sustainability and client / customer satisfaction.
The guests at the glittering ceremony enjoyed a champagne reception, a delicious three course meal, entertainment from local comedian Gary Marshall and Andy the Magician, and a charity raffle for Humber Rescue, where prizes included a signed Lee Westwood shirt and a driving thrill experience as well as a number of locally donated prizes. The charity raised 1,120.84 on the night.
The event was sponsored by Sandtoft Tiles, Yorkshire Water, The Association of Building Engineers and JS Supplies, together with national sponsors Kingspan Insulations and LABC New Homes Warranty.
The projects that have been successful in the South Yorkshire and Humber Building Excellence Awards 2010 are also eligible for nomination to the National LABC Finals, to be held in London later in the year.
