The ICPEM Award of Excellence 2010 has been awarded jointly to Bill Blake and Tony Moore,
the immediate past Joint Chairs of the Institute.

Presented by the Institute Chair, Gordon Macdonald, at the Conference Dinner at Kettering, the award was made in acknowledgement of the exceptional leadership demonstrated by Bill and Tony in recognising the considerable benefits of merging the Institute of Civil Defence and Disaster Studies and the Institute of Emergency Management.

They both worked tirelessly towards achieving a successful outcome for the newly formed ICPEM and they have succeeded in delivering a fit for purpose and healthy new Institute with a robust framework that will support its aims and members well into the future.

For this outstanding commitment and in appreciation their long-standing and significant involvement, expertise and stature in the resilience field, the Executive Committee was unanimous in nominating both Bill and Tony as joint recipients for this year's award.

They jointly received the magnificent Welsh glass trophy and shared the £300 prize.
