Bennett Homes scooped the ‘Housebuilder of the Year’ award as construction firms across England and Wales were recognised in the seventh annual National Federation of Builders (NFB) awards.
Construction companies and industry figures from across England and Wales recently gathered in the Midlands to celebrate outstanding contributions made to the built environment.
Hosted by ITN’s broadcaster and journalist, Nina Hossein, alongside actor, comedian and writer, Robert Llewellyn, the seventh annual awards ceremony took place at the Belfry Hotel and Resort. The awards followed an NFB golf tournament which took place earlier in the day.
Richard Beresford, Chief Executive of the NFB, said: “The NFB Awards showcase all that is special about our industry. Each project has a real story and vision behind it. During these uncertain times, we were pleasantly surprised to have received a record amount of entries and the process of selecting the winners has been tough and involved much deliberation. The entries we received this year demonstrate the breadth of skills and talent that our industry has. Congratulations to all of the winners on the night.”
Awards were presented across 13 categories including Apprentice of the Year, Construction Employer of the Year and House Builder of the Year.
