TVH was proud to sponsor the Apprentice of the Year Award at the UKMHA Archies Awards 2025, held on 10 September at the Vox Conference Centre, NEC Birmingham.
The awards highlighted the skills and dedication of the next generation of forklift service engineer apprentices, with winners including:
- Thomas Wright, Briggs Equipment – 2nd Year Apprentice of the Year
- Dan Allen, Crow Lift Trucks – 3rd Year Apprentice of the Year
Alongside celebrating the industry’s future talent, the evening also recognised the achievements of those who have shaped the sector over many years. TVH’s very own Graham Hughes, who recently retired, received the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award for his outstanding contribution to the material handling industry.
Mark Rogers, Managing Director, TVH UK & Ireland, commented:
“Sponsoring the Apprentice of the Year Award is part of our ongoing commitment to supporting technical talent in our industry. Seeing Thomas and Dan recognised for their dedication, alongside Graham being honoured for a lifetime of service, perfectly captures the balance of fresh potential and lasting expertise that drives material handling forward.”
