BMC volunteers to be recognised with an annual award

A new award in recognition of the vital contribution volunteers make to the BMC and mountaineering will be launched next month.

The first recipients of the George Band Award for Exceptional Voluntary Contribution will be Neville McMillan and George Steele, who between them have given over 60 years of service to the BMC Technical Committee. During that period they have been involved in numerous equipment investigations and helped to establish international standards.

It's good to share!
