Nominate your Phiatus charity champion

Each year, the Worshipful Company of Actuaries presents the Phiatus Award to an actuary who has made an impressive contribution to charity.

There is still time to submit your nominations for the 2015 award. The award is not simply about fundraising - although we do want to hear about impressive fundraising efforts - but will recognise all forms of charitable work and activity.

Please send through your nominations - we want to hear about and encourage actuaries in their work for charity.

These should be sent to the editor of The Actuary at [email protected]
