IAN MARTIN SMITH, 1950-2023
We were so sorry to learn earlier today of the sudden death of our retired Commercial Director Ian Smith. He worked with us on the awards for over 18 years from 1999 onwards and was hugely influential in the growing success of the scheme over those years.
Ian joined the bus industry at Midland Red as a company trainee in 1968 and later worked for National Travel in its very early days. Later he left the industry for a distinguished career in reprographics and business consultancy.
We send our deepest condolences to Ian's wife Doreen and daughter Caroline and all the family.
