On 29 November 2025, the ice skating community came together for the first ever ICE Awards — a landmark ceremony celebrating the outstanding contributions of coaches, volunteers, officials and clubs across the country. The inaugural event brought together the award finalists, their friends and family, BIS Board members and other key stakeholders, for an inspiring evening hosted by Mark Hanretty.
The ICE Awards were created to honour and recognise the pivotal work carried out behind the scenes, from dedicated coaches nurturing talent, to volunteers and officials ensuring the smooth running of clubs and events, and entire clubs whose passion and community spirit help keep skating alive from grassroots to elite levels.
Spice are delighted that the winner of the British Ice Skating Inspirational Volunteer Award is our very own Penny Currall and a massive congratulations to Annie Hodgson, winner of the inaugural British Ice Skating Inclusion Champion Award!
Well done Penny and Annie!
