On the evening of October 18th, the annual Sceptre Awards took place in London at the Hilton London Bankside.

MAN Commercial Contract Director Andy Bryce attended the awards with one of his teams who were finalists in the Security Team of the Year category!

The team in question are based at Parr’s Wood Entertainment Centre in Manchester. Led by Security Manager Jamie Walsh, our team have had an exceptional 12 months, dealing with many difficult incidents on site including violent attacks and anti-social behaviour. The team were also pivotal when a customer suffered a cardiac arrest while in the cinema on site; thanks to the quick-thinking actions of the team the customer made a full recovery.

Representing the team at the ceremony was Andy Bryce, Jamie Walsh, Centre General Manager Mark Welsby and Security Officers Mark Barnett, Omer Ali and Joshua Welsby.

Centre General Manager Mark Welsby said, ““I could list for hours the number of incidents the team deal with on a daily basis from the basics of health and safety checks to ensuring that the centre is a safe, clean, and fun destination for our customers to visit.”
