Last year’s Barnsley and Rotherham Business Awards were a big hit with the ceremony declared a sell out with three weeks to go.
The event was held for the first time in Barnsley and we are pleased to announce we will return to the Barnsley Metrodome to host the glittering event again on Friday, 23rd October and again we are expecting a high number of entries.
Last year we saw over 100 entries in the 10 categories and companies can this year enter the awards from 1st June 2015. Again, entry will be open for 10 categories with top performers from the night being entered into the Business of the Year category. Entry is open to all members of the Chamber and all businesses in Barnsley and Rotherham.
Andrew Denniff, Chamber Chief Executive said, “This is a once a year opportunity for us to celebrate all that is best in business innovation, enterprise and growth across our region. I would encourage as many businesses and individuals as possible to consider putting their names forward and get yourselves recognised for the tremendous results you have achieved over the past few months”.
Once again the Chamber will award a member charity the status of Charity of the Year and will recognise five longstanding businesses a Salute to Business during the ceremony.
