2011 Former IVR Chairman receives Green Flag Award
The 2011 Green Flag Award was presented to John Sparrow FIVR.
John, a former chairman of the IVR, has been involved with the recovery and garage industry for over 40 years. In the early days, as with many operators, building the business took up much of his time but he still found time for other motor related pastimes. In his younger days he was an excellent rally driver, securing the sponsorship of Bass Charrington and taking part in the Mexico Challenge in a Mk1 Escort Mexico.
John has always been a staunch supporter of the IVR and continues to work in the family business, as do his daughters and his granddaughter.
