Soldiering On Awards

Sip has been fortunate enough to have been nominated for two awards at this year’s Soldering on Awards. The finalist Gala Dinner will be held in the Park Plaza Hotel in central London on Thursday 27th October 2022. In recognition for the Enduro7 held in 2021 and for over 20 years dedication in support of wounded, injured and sick service personnel, Sip has been nominated for the Inspiration and Lifetime Achievement awards.

"Regardless of whether I win or not, I am extremely proud to have even been considered let alone become a finalist. I am inspired by the countless people I have met and trained alongside, who regardless of their injuries or illness have retained a fantastic sense of humour and a determination that they are not defined by what they can’t do but instead, what they can do."

Sip has been very fortunate to have travelled down to London three times, firstly as a judge for ...
