Matthew Graham is honoured to receive the Design Matters National 2020 Ronald Pickford Award for Service Excellence.

The Ronald Pickford Award is in recognition of people who have contributed years of service to Design Matters National and to their industry which is outside of building design.

Matthew is a subject-matter expert in the Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme. He’s considered a highly experienced, accredited Thermal Performance Assessor, teacher and mentor in AccuRate, BERS Pro and FirstRate5. He’s also an active contributor to the development of the industry as a Design Matters National, ABSA and NatHERS Technical Advisory Committee member.

Matthew is commended on his dedication and his desire to educate and empower assessors to perform at their best. Matthew’s contribution to Design Matters National Technical Advisory Committee is invaluable drawing on his broad knowledge and relationships across the industry. Nothing tends to get past Matthew’s keen eye which has led to numerous software and practice improvements for assessors across the industry.

Ronald Pickford is an active Founding and Life Member of the then BDAV now, Design Matters National. He supports industry, the association and mentors young people embarking in their profession. These are common attributes, and Matthew is grateful to receive this industry recognition.
