AWARDS UPDATE
Update as of 1st October 2021
Ethos
These are grassroots business awards focusing on the quality and range of local businesses.
The awards are not an excuse for a party. The focus is on the entries and not the event. It's a chance for local businesses to get together, while the awards presentation will also be live-streamed to reach the maximum number of people.
Our Five-Point Promise
-
The role of the awards is to promote the range and quality of local businesses.
-
Entry will be free.
-
Judging will be independent and online with no outside influence.
-
There will be a category for every business.
-
The awards ceremony will be open to all. The cost to attend will just be the cost to us.
