Congratulations to all the companies who walked away with accolades at last Thursday’s 2019 Constructing Excellence Yorkshire and Humber Awards (#CEYH2019). Held at New Dock Hall, part of the Royal Armouries in Leeds, the CEYH2019 Awards brought together the biggest construction firms in the country to recognise and reward the organisations demonstrating best practice in construction over the last twelve months across seventeen different categories, each representing some of the most important issues in the sector.

The standard was extremely high and the judges were once again faced with some very difficult decisions – the calibre of the projects that didn’t win only serving to illustrate the depth of industry talent in our region.

The winners of each category now go on to represent the Yorkshire and Humber region at the National Constructing Excellence Awards in London in Autumn. The CEYH2019 team are sure you will join them in wishing all the organisations the best of luck!

If you are interested in being involved in the 2020 Constructing Excellence Yorkshire and Humber Awards, please contact the organisers, Liz or Donna at the Centre for Knowledge Exchange at the School of Built Environment and Engineering, on 0113 812 1902 or via email to ckeevents@leedsbeckett.ac.uk.
