Right place, right time

Comment

It is with great sadness that we have decided, after much consideration, to postpone this year’s Storage Awards until later in the year, when - hopefully - the world has resumed something like its normal status. It wasn’t a decision taken lightly, as you can imagine, but I’ve no doubt you will all agree that in the current circumstances it is the only decision that makes sense.

In the grand scheme of things of course an industry awards night is not really so important; this global pandemic is changing the daily lives of almost everyone on the planet at rates we would never have imagined possible just a few months ago. At the same time of course, there is a natural human desire for normality, for routine, and that is where things like our awards can actually be a positive thing.

It may happen several months later than usual, but trust me when I say that when it does happen, it will be a great night for all concerned and will be a reminder of better times both gone and still to come. In the meantime, we hope that you all stay safe and healthy.
