The NDMA awards ceremony took place on 15th September at the Barnstaple Hotel
Proceedings were overseen by David Fitzgerald (“Fitz”) as Master of Ceremonies and NDMA Chairman Tim Puttick. The gala dinner commenced following a moment of reflection and a minute’s silence to respect the period of national mourning for Queen Elizabeth II.
