High marks in the Highlands: Announcing the winners of the Striving for Excellence Awards

APSE Scotland is pleased to announce the winners of the Striving for Excellence Awards.

These awards, designed to recognise successful local government neighbourhood services, celebrate innovation in service design and delivery in the areas of Waste and Recycling Services, Fleet Services and Grounds Maintenance, and Parks and Streetscene Services.

As host of the Awards, APSE Chief Executive Paul O’Brien said, ‘I am thrilled to see so many local authorities ensuring that their services benefit from innovative ideas and best practice. The award ceremony was a fitting end to an excellent seminar. Despite operating in a climate of growing uncertainty, the Striving for Excellence Awards prove that Scottish councils continue to provide a first-class service for their communities.

The winners were announced at the APSE Scotland Fleet, Waste and Grounds seminar 2018 on Thursday 17 May.

Congratulations to all winners and finalists!
