Bradford College Earns Prestigious RoSPA Health & Safety Award

Bradford College has recently fought off global competition to win a RoSPA (The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents) Award, demonstrating an ongoing commitment to health and safety excellence in the process.

We picked up a ‘Highly Commended’ award in the Education & Training Service Sector category, emphasising our dedication to an embedded culture of health and safety across College and making sure everyone gets home safely at the end of each day.

Director of People Services, Sarah Cooper, said: “As executive lead for health and safety, I’m delighted that we’ve received this illustrious award. This recognises not only the work of the Health & Safety Team, but that of all colleagues across our College campuses, who ensure that health and safety is embedded in all activity. It’s absolutely essential that we keep students, staff, stakeholders and visitors free from harm whilst studying, working or visiting Bradford College; this external recognition from RoSPA reinforces our aims to do the right thing.”

The RoSPA Awards, now in its 68th year, is the UK’s largest and most impactful health and safety programme. With almost 2,000 entries from over 50 countries annually, the awards offer a platform to spotlight unwavering commitment to excellence in health and safety.

Julia Small, RoSPA’s Achievements Director, said: “Workplace accidents don’t just pose financial risks and operational disruptions, they significantly impact quality of life for individuals; this is why acknowledging and rewarding excellent safety performance is vital. We congratulate Bradford College for this award and continued efforts to keep employees, students and the public safe from accidental harm and injury.”

This is just the latest in a long line of awards recognising our commitment to transforming lives. Discover more on our Awards and Recognition webpage.
