GFSL Hidden Heroes announced
Gov Facility Services Ltd (GFSL) is proud to announce the winners of its own Hidden Heroes today (29 September 2021).
Hidden Heroes are being celebrated across the UK today - so GFSL has created new awards of its own to celebrate those who truly deserve recognition in the Facilities Management industry.
These awards are not associated or endorsed by the main Butler Trust awards to be announced in December. These individuals have been nominated by GFSL Site Managers and judged by GFSL CEO, Paul Ryder.
There were some inspirational nominations in the line up, but the final 13 were those who stood out as having gone ‘above and beyond’ during the recent pandemic. This was evident in the written testimonials from both GFSL managers and HMPPS customers who paid tribute to their performance, such as working extra shifts and duties to support colleagues who were absent due to COVID.
The GFSL Hidden Heroes Star is Andrew Whale - Escort and Safety Manager
Location: HMP Coldingley
Andrew will be presented with a £150.00 reward voucher by Coldingley Site Manager, Adrian Page.
The 12 winners below nominated as GFSL Hidden Heroes will each be presented with a company certificate, a £25.00 reward voucher, and a special notice of thanks to be shared in the company communications.

GFSL CEO Paul Ryder said:
It was a difficult award to judge these awards as there are countless people who deserve one. Today is about showing our appreciation for the loyalty and resilience shown during an extremely difficult period. These awards recognise the important contribution people have made, whether large or small, to maintaining the prison service.
