Nominees for Jack Ovenden Award 2012 announced
The Institute of Vehicle Recovery has announced the nominees for the 2012 Jack
Ovenden Award, which this year will be sponsored by Recovery Industry
Engineering Standards (RIES).
The first nominee is Sam Hall. Sam joined the Mansfield Group from ISIS Rescue in
2011 and was nominated by Peter Martin of Peter Martin Support Services.
The second nominee is Neil Chilvers of Boarhunt. Neil has been involved in
recovery for six years and was nominated by Matt Ayling of Midhurst Engineering.
Both nominees will now be invited to attend a panel interview prior to the IVR AGM
on Saturday 10 March. They will be asked a series of questions and graded by a
panel made up of members of the Rescue Recovery Trainers Association (RRTA).
The Jack Ovenden Award will then be presented to this year's winner by Nick
Ovenden, of Ashford Recovery, at the IVR Gala Dinner.
To even be nominated for this prestigious 'Outstanding Student of the Year' award is
a huge honour so many congratulations go to this year's candidates.
