Stephen was awarded his fellowship in recognition of his exceptional professional skills, knowledge and contribution to the Sameday Delivery Industry.

Stephen received his fellowship and was gowned by the President of the Institute of Couriers Viscount Falkland in a ceremony at the House of Lords in London on 7th March. Stephen said: "It's a real honour to be recognised by the industry in this way and the fellowship reflects DHL's high commitments to industry standards particularly in its Same Day service."
