BELLWAY senior site manager Peter Lawrie has been presented with a national health and safety award.

The Bellway national UK awards, which is in its second year, shortlisted 44 sites which were assessed and then four regional winners were selected for their achievements. An overall winner will be awarded next month.

Peter and his team, Bellway Homes Ltd (Scotland East), received the award for their work at Earl’s Way in Glenrothes representing Scotland and the north east divisions. He was presented with a plaque by group health and safety director, Claire Birkhead.

Peter said, “It’s great to win this award as it shows the dedication by the team on site that health and safety is always our number one priority.”

Claire Birkhead added, “This is a highly sought-after award and demonstrates our commitment, innovation and dedication to health and safety. We are very proud of all those put forward for the award, and Earl’s Way was exceptional in its presentation.”

The win follows hot on the heels of Peter securing a National House Building Council (NHBC) Pride in the Job Award. Peter, from Dunfermline, was presented with an NHBC award for the Large Builder Category and will now represent Scotland at the UK Supreme finals taking place in January 2024 in London.
