Lancashire Business View's Sub36 Awards are back this year and sponsors are signing up to support the prestigious event.

Lancashire Skills and Employment Hub has put its name to the Early Career Apprentice Award, which recognises apprentices who are the very start of their training, developing core skills and building confidence in the workplace.

The award is for young people applying their learning day to day and beginning to make a positive contribution to their team and organisation.

Dr Michele Lawty-Jones, director of the Lancashire Skills Hub, said: "The Sub36 Awards provide an important opportunity to recognise and celebrate the outstanding younger employees who are shaping Lancashire's future.

"At the Lancashire Skills and Employment Hub, we are passionate about supporting skills development, career progression and talent retention.

"Sponsoring these awards reflects our commitment to championing the next generation of leaders, innovators and professionals who are making a positive impact across the county."

Richard Slater, chairman of Lancashire Business View, said: "The Sub36 Awards shine a spotlight on the drive, innovation and leadership potential that is shaping the future of our economy.

“When we look back into our list of previous winners it is inspiring is seeing how many of them have gone on to become successful and influential in their fields.

“By sponsoring the awards, businesses can help us support organisations to build confidence, inspire ambition and ensure Lancashire continues to thrive with strong, forward-thinking leadership for years to come.”

The awards will take place on October 16 at the Park Hall Hotel and Spa.
