After a remarkable 25-year career working for Westminster City Council, Nazmi Sedrak, thought to be Britain’s oldest parking marshall – is hanging up his hi-vis at the age of 88.
Since joining the City of Westminster in 2000, working for parking contractors NSL, Nazmi (pictured, righty) has been a driving force behind keeping Westminster’s streets safe, orderly, and accessible. Known for his warm smile and keen sense of fairness, he’s earned the admiration of residents and colleagues alike.
It’s estimated that Nazmi has issued more than 50,000 fines during his time in Westminster, demonstrating his commitment to keeping the city’s streets safe and accessible for everyone.
On Friday 10 October, the Lord Mayor of Westminster welcomed Nazmi for tea in his office at Westminster City Hall and presented him with a gift of cufflinks to celebrate his long years of service.
The Lord Mayor of Westminster, Councillor Paul Dimoldenberg said:
“It was a pleasure to host Nazmi, it’s the least we can do for his 25 years of valued service. I’m so pleased to have met him before he retires and hear about his experiences in Westminster and how much the city has evolved.”
“I want to thank him for all his hard and service in Westminster even in later life- it really shows that age is just a number, and I hope I’m still as active as Nazmi when I’m his age”.
