For those who have served our nationโservice leavers, veterans, and members of the blue light communityโthe transition to civilian life presents a unique set of challenges and opportunities. The CTS Harbour Area is a pioneering network of innovation hubs designed to be their anchor point for entrepreneurship and growth.
Inspired by the concept of a "harbour" as a secure base, we provide a trusted environment where individuals can regroup, share ideas born from experience, and confidently build their next chapter. It's more than just a workspace; it's a community built on shared understanding and mutual support.

It takes a rare calibre of person to answer the call when crisis hits. The Blue Light Awards are our tribute to themโa national celebration of the dedication, bravery, and unwavering service that defines our emergency and rescue community across the UK and Ireland.
We believe recognition belongs to everyone who wears the uniform and everyone who supports it. From the paramedics on the front line and the officers on the beat, to the call handlers who are the calm in the storm and the support staff who form the backbone of the operation. Our Blue Light Awards are designed to shine a light on the entire ecosystem of service.
