Staff member Wojciech Cesarczyk was named one of the University's 'Unsung Heroes' in December at the Professional Service Recognition Awards 2019.

This recognition scheme celebrates outstanding performance by individuals and teams who provide professional support services across the University. Emma Rampton, the Registrary, described the University’s professional services staff as "indispensable" and "the glue that binds the University together," saying to those attending the event: "You are the people who make things happen, who support and help to bring about the University’s many achievements, and who are there to help when others need you."

Wojciech was nominated for his work in the Gaunt Group research lab. The citation for Wojciech's 'Unsung Hero' award describes how he "ensures that the lab, office and kitchen areas are sparkling clean every day. His pleasant nature and demeanour is valued by his colleagues, in particular his effort to say good morning to everyone – a small gesture, but one that the whole lab appreciates. Staff have pride in the lab for being a tidy and safe environment and Wojciech helps to maintain such high standards."

Wojciech is pictured with the other award recipients above. (He can just be seen at the far right-hand end of the third row.) Many congratulations to him.
