In April 2025, Marty Nardelli saved a man who collapsed on a crowded platform and fell down onto the tracks during rush hour at King's Cross.
Marty acted without a thought for the 600 volts running inches from him and we are proud to have recognised him at our recent awards.

In April 2025, a massive gas explosion destroyed several homes & people were in danger of being burned alive. Five neighbours risked their lives to them.
For their bravery Robert Cainey, Caralyn Jones, Luke Wood, Richard Cainey & Kevin Macdonald were recognised by the Society.

Proud to honour the immense bravery of police officers at our annual awards. Wearing a uniform doesn't make their courage or their humanity any less remarkable.
We were deeply grateful that these senior police leaders attended to support their colleagues.

A father alerted by his daughter. A 90-year-old alone in a burning house. Gas canisters exploding. Joseph Butler smashed through the window, scaled a fence & carried the man to safety despite his own blood pressure condition. We're incredibly proud to award him the Bronze Medal.

Proud of our young 🇯🇴 who represent the sincere values and bright image of Jordan. Zaid is one of our youth who demonstrated great courage and selflessness, stepping forward to rescue those who were in urgent need of help. I thank @RoyalHumane Society for recognising and honouring him

PC Hawley said the award was "humbling", adding: "It just reassures you that, despite all the negativity that's out there about policing, we do some really good things.”

“When the officers came through the door my heart had stopped and they did CPR on me for 22 minutes. Without their first aid skills I would be dead.”

“It’s a lot. I’m alive because of what they did and to recognise what was happening to me. It affected them too, it’s such a responsibility to take on, especially when its someone you know. They really deserve this award.”
