pask certificate of honour

The Pask Award was instituted in 1977 after the Moorgate Underground disaster of 1975 and the desire of Council to honor the gallantry of a Registrar Anaesthestist.

The award is made by Council.   The certificates may be presented on any suitable occasion.   The award was instituted to enable Council of the Association to honor those who have rendered distinguished service, either with gallantry in the performance of their clinical duties, in a single meritorious act or consistently and faithfully over a long period.

The award was named after Professor E A Pask.   Pask had a distinguished career in the Royal Air Force Medical Branch as an experimental physiologist in the Second World War.   This included dangerous self experimentation requiring considerable personal courage.  

The award is made by resolution of the Council and can be made any time of year.   It is usually presented at Annual Meetings.
