Organized by the Association for Specialist Fire Protection (ASFP) as part of its annual ASFP Awards, the incredible accolade is given to those individuals who have demonstrated ‘exceptional practice over a significant period.’
In particular, they will have made a lasting impact on people, organizations, or companies with a ‘display of wisdom and depth of service/leadership’ and will be recognized throughout their organization for all they have contributed to the sector.
Higher national qualifications

Mike’s legacy within the fire safety sector has been nothing short of outstanding
As a fire safety manager for the Medical Research Council's main laboratories, he covered all aspects of training and emergency liaison for a staff of over 1,000, including the on-site fire team.
He then completed his FPA and CFPA European Diploma in the early 90s. It was 1995 when Mike joined the FPA as Senior Training Officer, initially working alongside Howard Passey (now Director of Operations) on various projects, where he primarily covered in-house courses for facilities managers.
Passive fire protection industry
He covers a wide range of passive and active matters for a variety of FPA courses. The purpose of the ASFP Awards is to recognize excellence within the passive fire protection industry. Other notable awards include the Academic Achievement Award, Advocate of the Year, Individual Rising Star of the Year, and Passive Fire Innovation of the Year.
The nomination Mike has received is undoubtedly a fantastic accomplishment, and we look forward to the award winner being announced at the end of the month. This year's ASFP Awards will take place at the impressive Park Regis Hotel in Birmingham on 25 November 2022.
