IPAF IAPA awards
The Lifetime Achievement award went to the industry veteran Frank Huish who retired almost 25 years ago. He not only built Instant Zip into an highly successful sales and rental company, introducing the majority of rental companies to aerial lifts, but also instigated the first operator training programme, which he then persuaded IPAF to adopt and the IPAF Pal card training was born, he had also been instrumental in the formation of the Federation. He went on to train and mentor a generation of UK access rental entrepreneurs and managers.
