Commenting on the event, honoured guest and Fire & Security Matters Awards supporter Richard Jenkins (CEO at the NSI) commented: “Recognising the invaluable contributions of those in the fire safety and private security sectors who work tirelessly to keep people and property safe in our everyday lives is crucial. Without their dedication and commitment to safeguarding our communities, in partnership with the police and other key stakeholders, the places in which we live, work and spend our leisure time in today’s complex and unpredictable environments would be far less safe.”

Jenkins added: “As a keen supporter of the Fire & Security Matters Awards, we are proud to congratulate the finalists and winners for their achievements and wish them all every success in the future.”
