Fortel Extends Sponsorship of Personal Impact Medals at This Year’s Heroes Awards

Fortel, the UK’s leading provider of agency labour to the construction industry, has been announced as the sponsor of the Personal Impact Medals at this year’s Heroes Awards, extending its partnership into a fifth consecutive year.

The Personal Impact Medals are awarded to individuals whose selfless actions have made a profound personal difference to others. Unique within the ceremony, these medals recognise multiple people for acts of courage and selflessness. Past recipients have been celebrated for heroism ranging from preventing individuals from harming themselves to other acts of bravery that protect and support others in challenging circumstances.

Fortel provides contractors with pre-briefed, compliant teams of trusted and skilled workers for major construction and infrastructure projects. Over the years, the company has become a go-to partner for leading contractors seeking reliable labour for high-profile projects. Its continued support of the Heroes Awards highlights a commitment to celebrating individuals who go above and beyond in their communities and workplaces.

The Personal Impact Medals are always a highlight of the awards ceremony, presented during the climax of the gala evening. This year’s Heroes Awards will take place at the Chancery Rosewood Hotel, Mayfair on 1st December, celebrating individuals who have admirably coped with adversity and taken exceptional action to help others.

Speaking about Fortel’s ongoing support, Alicia Hibberts, Co-founder of the Heroes Awards, said:

"The longstanding support for the Heroes Awards from Fortel is a testament to how far this ceremony has come in its relatively short journey. From concept to redefining the norm around corporate awards, the Heroes Awards now focus on celebrating unsung heroes and those we put to work across the industry. To see organisations like Fortel truly embody this spirit is humbling, and I give my personal thanks for their commitment."

Hardeep Sanghera, Head of Health and Safety at Fortel, added:

"We are proud to continue our support of the Heroes Awards for the fifth consecutive year. Sponsoring the Personal Impact Medals demonstrates our commitment to recognising excellence and innovation within the industry. These awards shine a light on initiatives and individuals making a real, positive difference in construction and beyond. We hope that this year’s ceremony is a resounding success and that it continues to celebrate those who go above and beyond in their work and communities."

Fortel’s sponsorship of the Personal Impact Medals positions the company among a select group of blue ribbon gold sponsors, highlighting its dedication to celebrating extraordinary achievements and reinforcing the values of courage, selflessness, and leadership within the industry.
