VODA’s Robin Fry Highly Commended CEO of the Year

CEO of the Year Award - R Fry

VODA’s Chief Executive Robin Fry was Highly Commended in the CEO of the Year category at NAVCA’s Heart of the Community Awards in December.

The Heart of the Community Awards celebrates the vital work of local infrastructure and NAVCA members were invited to submit nominations in eight categories.

After an unprecedented year, the team at VODA was keen to recognise the amazing work of our Chief Executive, so decided to nominate him for the award (without him knowing). You can watch our nomination in the video below (watch from 5.10) and hear from just a few of us about why the team felt he deserved this recognition.
