NQA prize winners

Health and Safety practitioners pre-registering to attend Health and Safety Midlands in September and Health and Safety North in October were given the chance to enter prize draws to win either an 32GB iPad 2 or a Blackberry Playbook Tablet, courtesy of assessment, verification and certification body NQA.

The lucky winners were drawn at random after the event: Karen James, head of health and safety at Guide Dogs for the Blind Association, won the iPad, and Rupert Webster, IMS manager at Carillion, won the Blackberry Playbook Tablet.

During his visit to Health & Safety North Rupert found time to speak with NQA. "NQA gave me a full professional overview of what they deliver and how they are there to help," he said. "I currently have a number of contracts that I manage, and one JV in particular is desperate to gain OHSAS 1800. With this in mind I had a good chat with NQA and have now given the JV quality manager all the details and am actively encouraging him in this process." NQA - an event partner of the regional Health & Safety Events - will give away another Blackberry Playbook Tablet at Health and Safety South on 12-13 March 2013, Sandown Park, Esher.
