Master Builder Magazine: August-September 2024

NATIONAL CONFERENCE

The FMB’s 83 rd National AGM

2025 Master Builder Awards

Notice is hereby given that the Federation of Master Builders’ 83 rd National General Meeting (AGM) will be held at Doubletree By Hilton Lincoln, Brayford Wharf, Lincoln LN1 1YW on Friday 13 September at 9.15am.

The Master Builder Awards celebrate your hard work and earn you the industry recognition you deserve. Nominations for the 2025 Master Builder Awards, sponsored by Isuzu UK Ltd, are expected to open in autumn this year. Only FMB members can enter the awards and it is free to do so as part of your membership. Consider your entries now ● Check your project’s eligibility – do you have a project completed between January 2023 and January 2025? All nominations must relate to projects completed within this timeframe. Projects still under construction in January 2025 will not be eligible for the 2025 awards but can be considered for the next awards cycle. ● Gather images – quality photos are important to showcase your project and impress the judges. Capture the whole project, not just a detail (such as a close-up of a tap). You can upload 10 photos per entry and photos of the finished project work best. A picture really is worth a thousand words. ● Speak to your clients – you’ll need their permission to use their property in your entry as it may be published on the FMB website, social media channels and in the media (we don’t collect their private details). Ask your clients for a testimonial about what they love about the project or why they enjoyed working with you as this will help your entry to stand out.
