David Robinson, chief executive officer of PD Ports, has been appointed Regional Ambassador for HRH The Prince of Wales, on behalf of the prince’s charity Business in the Community.
The award is for Robinson’s role in organising businesses on Teeside to help young people improve their skills and aspirations.
Karen Wilkinson-Bell, regional director of the charity, said; “Each year I am thoroughly inspired by the amazing examples of what businesses are doing in the North East to incorporate responsible business in all they say and do. Our winners show great leadership and willingness to genuinely transform their businesses and the communities in which they operate.”
