ESC board member honoured
Roy Jones, a member of the Electrical Safety Council’s (ESC) Board and governing body, has been awarded an MBE in the New Year’s Honours List, for Services to Young People in Wales.
Jones (pictured) has over 40 years of service within the utility market and is currently a Community Liaison Manager for ScottishPower. Following the launch of ScottishPower Learning in 1995, he oversaw the delivery of the Prince’s Trust team programme across North Wales and Merseyside and, as New Deal Manager, helped establish schemes to bring young people into employment.
Originally from Bethesda, North Wales, Roy Jones has also managed the Your Champions Award for ScottishPower and Trinity Mirror North Wales, which gives recognition to unsung community heroes in the region.
“I am honoured to receive this award but it has really been a team effort,” explains Jones. “The community projects I have worked on could not have been delivered without the help and support of my colleagues. Their generosity with their time and expertise has been fundamental to the success of our community projects, as it is this sharing of skills which has proved key to getting young people into work”.
