Lifetime Achievement Award for JBP Director
JBP non-executive director Keith Bonham was honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Award at this year's prestigious Bristol Evening Post Business Awards.
Keith, who also has an MBE, is a former managing partner of the Bristol office of Ernst & Young, the chartered accountants and business advisers. Now retired, he remains as busy as ever, holding a number of appointments as a trustee or director of mainly not-for-profit, charitable organisations and raising tens of thousands of pounds for charities across the city.
The accolade for Keith was announced at the second Evening Post Business Awards in front of more than 300 people who attended the gala event at the Dolman Suite at Bristol City Football Club on May 15.
Speaking to Evening Post business reporter James Cowling after the evening, Keith said: "I'm absolutely overwhelmed by this award. It was a wonderful surprise and I have been delighted to be a part of Bristol's thriving business community."
