The inaugural presentation of the Alan St John Holt Trophy took place at the Hampshire Health, Safety & Environmental

Hampshire.
Entries from apprentices and apprenticeship organisations from the public or private sector had to demonstrate a basic
understanding of hazard and risk and how they could be managed. They could be actioned collectively as a group or
individually with the aim of promoting safety awareness and occupational health issues in those shortly to join industry or

The Allan St John Holt Trophy is dedicated to his memory and was conceived by the combined thinking of the Executive
Committees of the IOSH South Coast Branch, the Hampshire Health Safety and Environmental Group and the Solent
Occupational Safety Association as a special tribute recognizing his lifelong, most valued, valuable and tireless contribution
in the field of occupational safety and health.
Allan was well known nationally and internationally for his work in health and safety and was without a doubt a true leader
who inspired and remained supreme.
