More than 1,000 people gathered in the Great Room at London’s Grosvenor House Hotel in June to celebrate the 10th year of the annual ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø Services Awards.

The highly sought-after ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø Services Awards are all about rewarding best practice, innovation and excellence.

This year's event was hosted by the multi- talented actor, comedian and musician Bill Bailey.

But the real highlight of the night were the winners themselves.

Star of the show was Buro Happold, which picked up ‘Major project of the year’ for the stunning new Emirates Stadium for Arsenal FC, ‘Project of the year’ for the Perth Concert Hall in Scotland, and whose employee Anna Matthews won ‘Young achiever of the year’.

Double winners included Hoare Lea, which collected both ‘Large consultancy of the year’ and ‘Office building of the year’ for the Chelsea ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø Society’s new headquarters, and Faber Maunsell, which not only scooped this year’s '’raining award' but also the ‘Best of the best’ category.

Other winners were NG Bailey, which secured the ‘Major contractor of the year’ award, and Red Engineering Design, which won the '’International achievement’ award for this year.

Another eight contractors, consultants and individuals scooped up awards showcasing a multitude of talents.

The evening was rounded off by a charity casino, with all the money raised going to the CIBSE Benevolent Fund and the Electrical and Electronics Industries Benevolent Association.

The entries all demonstrated spectacular feats of design, construction, business acumen and the highest standards of sustainability. If this year’s event has inspired you, why not enter the Sustainable ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø Services Awards 07. See page 6 for details on how to enter.
