Annual Awards Luncheon

On Friday 13th October, the Insurance Institute of Liverpool hosted its Annual Award Luncheon at Malmaison Hotel, Liverpool. Our Award Luncheon allows us the opportunity of celebrating the successes of our members who have successfully completed their studies in 2016.

In addition this year, we had a National CII Award winner, Carl Boose from Stackhouse Poland who gained the highest marks across the country for the Certificate in insurance - Worshipful Company of Insurers Prize.
All those candidates who have completed their examinations during the year are invited to attend the luncheon so that they can be recognised for their achievement. This year was no exception with the following members being congratulated:

Our speaker for the Luncheon was Neil Gyllenship, Fire Officer at Liverpool John Lennon Airport who gave a truly inspirational talk about how in 2010, with his best friend, he rowed across the Atlantic on a journey of a life time. Starting their journey in the Canary Islands, Neil and his partner rowed unaided across 3,000 miles of Atlantic Ocean in a 23’ rowing boat. They finally arrived in Antigua after 75 days at sea and in doing so, raised £68k for Claire House. His story was truly amazing!
A prize draw was held which raised a fantastic total of £375 for North West Air Ambulance, the President’s Charity for the year.
