“Having these categories sponsored by a recognised and respected company with close links to our members and the Association, is testament to the value placed on our awards scheme in the security realm.”

Mark Harris, Director, Darwin Clayton, said: “We are truly thrilled to have been selected as lead 2024 sponsor for these prestigious awards.

“Darwin Clayton’s heritage is built upon our long‑standing relationship with the Security industry, and we have been a supporter of the BSIA and the annual awards for over 25 years. We are extremely proud to be partnering with the industry’s leading association, in support of the awards which recognise the diligence and professionalism of the security companies and their people that represent the industry.”
