Overall, this was an inspiring Environmental Health Project with significant results."
City of Lincoln Council tackling Anti-Social Behaviour
Judges’ comments:
"Our winner offers an outstanding project brief, mission and purpose. This is a tremendous activity, and every authority should have something like this; it is truly innovative. We were impressed by the approach of partnership working to tackle fundamental societal issues and getting to the root-cause of problems, rather than just acting on the symptoms once they become apparent."
Stephen Monday - Safeguard Expert, Liberia Water and Sewer Corporation
Judges’ comments:
"Stephen has had a huge, and lasting impact, in a challenging environment. The judges were impressed by a project that increased access to piped water and improved the efficiency of the water distribution network in Monrovia, Liberia. The project demonstrated excellent partnership work, involving local communities in a difficult working environment. Overall the work has resulted in a significant lasting public health impact providing water in Liberia."
University Centre Weston (UCW) Environmental Health Widening Participation Team
Judges’ comments:
"This Environmental Health collective took on the challenge of reaching out, engaging and enticing young people to take an interest in issues that might lead to a career in Environmental Health, or at least a scientifically informed awareness of some common environmental health challenges. A good deal of energy and applied technique was invested, and the promotional activities demonstrated could be tried out by others in the profession."
Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council Environmental Health Food Safety Team
Judges’ comments:
"The team’s proactive approach to current issues and continued support of local businesses is exceptional. Through effective, hands-on sampling and visits to local businesses, it was apparent that there was a need for intervention."
Hassan Alzain
Judges’ comments:
"Hassan has demonstrated a commitment to his profession by his introduction of nutritional standards for the first time in Saudi Arabia, as well as developing a noise mitigation strategy from scratch for water operation facilities in the eastern province of Saudi Arabia that covers more than 100 locations. His nomination stood out as his projects could have been delivered by a much larger organisation so for this to be done by Hassan at an individual was exceptional, and a demonstration of his passion and drive."
