The Security and Fire Excellence Awards run in partnership with IFSEC and FIREX. First Response Group is this year’s headline sponsor, with Zitko Group also sponsoring.

The move to the JW Marriott Grosvenor House comes due to the sheer demand and popularity of the awards in previous years. The venue is more spacious and sits in the heart of Mayfair. The awards will take place in the Great Room, which has welcomed royalty, presidents, actors and musicians for the most exclusive and lavish events since 1929.

Demand for tables is always high, with the 2021 and 2022 Awards selling out well before the event. A limited number of VIP tables are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Book now to avoid disappointment and join the biggest awards the fire and security industry has to offer!

The 2023 charity partner is Mates in Mind, which empowers hundreds of organisations across the UK to tackle the silence surrounding mental ill-health and embed a positive culture change within workplaces.
