We are beyond thrilled to announce that McGinley Support Services has won the Progression Programme of the Year award at the UK Social Mobility Awards 2024! This achievement is a true reflection of our commitment to advancing social mobility and supporting individuals in realising their full potential within the infrastructure sector.
A Night to Remember
The awards ceremony was held at the prestigious Hilton Park Lane and was hosted by the talented TV personality Sue Perkins. Several members of our team represented McGinley Support Services, and it was an incredible night all round. We had the opportunity to meet some fantastic companies, share insights, and discuss our programmes with other like-minded organisations dedicated to driving social mobility forward.
A special moment of the evening was hearing from Tunde Banjoko OBE, the founder of the UK Social Mobility Awards (SOMOs). His inspiring speech was a highlight, leaving a lasting impact on everyone in attendance. We want to extend our sincere thanks to Tunde and his team for not only this incredible award but also for organising such a fantastic evening that celebrated the essential work being done across the UK to promote social mobility.
Congratulations to Fiona and Her Team!
A massive congratulations goes out to Fiona Burke and her team for their relentless dedication and hard work in driving our social mobility initiatives. Winning this award is a recognition of the passion and effort they put into every programme, and it’s a proud moment for all of us at McGinley Support Services.
Why This Award Matters
Social mobility has always been at the core of what we do. Winning this award is not just a milestone for us; it's a motivation to continue pushing boundaries, advocating for inclusivity, and creating meaningful opportunities for individuals from all backgrounds. We are privileged to receive this award and will use this recognition to amplify our efforts in promoting social mobility through our programmes.
A Night of Celebration and Dedication
The evening didn’t just end with the award – we celebrated into the wee hours, enjoying a great night with our peers and partners. There might be a few sore heads this morning, but it was well worth it! In line with our company value, Endeavour, we will continue to promote the benefits of social mobility in all our programmes, with a renewed commitment to educating and encouraging others to do the same.
Thank you once again to Tunde Banjoko OBE and the SOMOs team for the award and for hosting such a memorable evening. And to our own team – particularly Fiona, Emily and Rebecca – congratulations! This award belongs to all of you and reflects the outstanding work you do every day.
