Fleet Service GB (FSGB) was proud to sponsor the Kevin Storey Award for Road Safety 2025 at the annual Brake Awards – a prestigious event that celebrates innovation and commitment across the fleet and road safety industry.
This award has deep meaning for FSGB. Back in 2009, the company’s Chairman, Geoffrey Bray, won the award himself for his dedication to making roads safer. This year, Geoffrey and the FSGB team proudly sponsored the award and celebrated another inspiring winner.
Honouring Road Safety Excellence
The 2025 award went to Tony Crook, Road Safety Manager at Lancashire County Council. Tony made history as the first public sector winner of the Kevin Storey Award, a recognition of his tireless work improving safety for road users in his community.
Speaking about the award, Geoffrey Bray reflected on his own experience in 2009:
“To be a recipient of the Kevin Storey Award in 2009 was a truly humbling experience. Having spent most of my life in fleet and, for a number of years, working exclusively on a road safety programme, I had the good fortune of meeting and working with some truly exceptional individuals who influenced me in the road safety area. As the latest DfT figures show, road casualty figures, both killed and seriously injured, still remain far too high. For those of us working in the area of road safety, there is still much more work to be done. I look forward to, as an individual, continuing to make our roads safer, as long as I am able.”
Who Was Kevin Storey?
The award honours Kevin Storey, a Health and Safety Officer who tragically lost his life in 2005 when a van struck him on his way to deliver a road safety lecture. His legacy lives on through this award, which celebrates individuals who demonstrate outstanding commitment to reducing risks on the road.
FSGB’s Additional Recognition at the Brake Awards
It wasn’t just about sponsorship this year – FSGB also picked up a win of their own! The company took home the Fleet Safety Product Award for their Driver Management programme and software.
This solution is designed to help businesses monitor driver behaviour and improve compliance. This will ultimately create safer roads for everyone.
Why Road Safety Awards Matter
Road safety remains a major issue across the UK. Department for Transport (DfT) figures showing that casualties, both killed and seriously injured, are still too high. Awards like these shine a spotlight on individuals and organisations working hard to bring those numbers down and to inspire others to take action.
