To have our fundraising efforts recognised with the Community Business of the Year Award is the icing on the cake for us.
“We wouldn’t have won these awards without the hardwork and dedication of all our loyal staff,” she added.
“We wouldn’t have been able to reach our ambitious £30,000 fundraising target without the generosity of our loyal customers.”
As regional winners of the Family Business of the Year, members of staff will head to the UK final on Thursday May 23 at Battersea Evolution, where the UK category winners and FSB Business of the Year 2019 will be announced.
