Irwin Tools has launched its annual National Tradesman Day competition, giving you the chance to win a brand new Ford F150 4X4 as well as a truckload of Irwin tools and tickets to top sporting events.

Now in its fifth year, National Tradesman Day 2015 will be on 18th September and celebrates exceptional individuals who go above and beyond to achieve the best results and make a positive impact within the industry. National Tradesman Day is a global initiative founded by Irwin tools to applaud and encourage the workforce who work behind the scenes to keep the country running strong. As part of the initiative in store promotions, giveaways and events will be taking place throughout the year with the grand prize winner announced on the day itself.

Ian Birdsall, brand marketing manager EMEA at Irwin, says: “The National Tradesman Day initiative not only aims to raise the profile of tradesman within society but also works to drive the industry forward and encourage new interest in the profession. Often working behind the scenes, tradesmen ensure that the infrastructure that we rely on is in good working order so its important that we recognize the individuals that do a great job.”
