Host Announced for the 2011 IR Society Annual Dinner and Best Practice Awards

We’re very pleased to announce that this year’s Annual Dinner and Best Practice Awards will be hosted by one of the most famous faces of comedy today, Fred MacAulay. A former accountant, Fred is a regular on TV shows like Have I Got News for You and was the first ever Scottish compère at London's famous Comedy Store.

Firmly disproving the myth that accountants are a humourless bunch, this former number-cruncher has a calculated wit - always intelligent, but never overly taxing. His brand of contemporary observations and caustic sarcasm is ever popular and we are extremely pleased to welcome him back for his second time hosting the Best Practice Awards.

This year’s awards will be held in the spectacular Pavilion at the Tower of London – one of London’s most iconic landmarks. It promises to be a fantastic evening, and the standard of entries for the awards has once again been extremely high. Initial scoring is ongoing.

Last year’s event was a complete sell out – so avoid disappointment and book your table today.
