David Clark Award

 

The ASC Board are absolutely delighted that fellow Director, Ross Harvey, has been nominated for this year's David Clark Award, awarded by The UK Security Commonwealth.

Ross said “It's genuinely an honour to be recognised in such a prestigious award, and I am humbled to be considered among the many esteemed professionals in our industry for my contribution to the wider industry”.

The ‘David Clark CPP PCI PSP FISRM FinstLM Award for Exceptional Contribution to the UK Security Sector’, known as the ‘David Clark Award’ was first implemented in 2021. It is an annual award owned and administered by the UK Security Commonwealth (SyCom). Its purpose is to recognise exceptional voluntary contributions, made by individuals and groups, to the UK security sector and to encourage continuous improvement.

The award, named in tribute to the late David Clark former Chair of the Security Commonwealth and ASIS (UK Chapter), also serves as a legacy, building upon David Clark’s efforts to encourage continuous improvement within the UK security sector before his untimely death in 2019.

The award ceremony was part of an event organised by the International Foundation for Protection Officers (IFPO) and took place at the vibrant Informa offices near Blackfriars. It was an event filled with insights, camaraderie, and a celebration of excellence in the security sector.
