Thursday 12th February 2026 – The Barn, Channels Estate
We were delighted to welcome members and guests to this year’s ECTA Excellence Trainee Awards Lunch, which proved to be a fantastic celebration of emerging talent across our sector.
The event saw a great turnout, with attendees enjoying delicious food and a warm, positive atmosphere. The standard of nominees was exceptionally high, highlighting the commitment, skill and enthusiasm shown by trainees throughout the industry.
Awards were presented by our Chair, Steve Ewers, who congratulated all nominees and winners and thanked everyone for their continued support of the awards. It was wonderful to see so many achievements recognised and celebrated in person.
Since the event, we have received lots of positive feedback and have loved seeing the many LinkedIn posts and photos shared by attendees — thank you to everyone who helped spread the word and capture the day.
Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to making the lunch such a success. We are already looking forward to doing it all again next year!
