We’re proud to announce that our Chairman, Richard Hefford-Hobbs FREng, has been elected a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering.
Richard’s journey in engineering began with a four-year apprenticeship in scientific instrument making, long before university.
Since then, he has spent decades leading and supporting engineering projects, sharing his knowledge and mentoring others along the way.
This Fellowship recognises not only Richard’s achievements but also his commitment to the engineering community. He was formally inducted at Drapers Hall and received his Royal Academy Scroll from HRH The Princess Royal.
Congratulations, Richard – it’s a truly well-deserved recognition!
