Businesses across Lancashire are being called on to enter the national award-winning Red Rose Awards, which will crown the county’s best firms across 26 categories.

The 2017 Awards will once again feature joint headline sponsorship, with Forbes Solicitors reaffirming its support since the awards were launched in 2011, and Barclays joining for a fourth consecutive year.

“We are giving businesses the opportunity to shout about the great things they do and with at least one category applicable to every business in the county we hope they’ll grasp this opportunity to promote their success by entering.

“We are also proud to once more have our fantastic headline sponsors, Forbes Solicitors and Barclays, on board again for 2017 and also look forward to working with UCLan, our judging partner for the second year.”

“We encourage businesses that have something to shout about to get their entries in and look forward to meeting these businesses throughout the judging process.”

“The awards recognise businesses that are achieving growth and contributing to the overall success of the region, something Barclays is incredibly supportive of.

Other sponsors confirmed to date include RSM, Seneca, Beever and Struthers, Bespoke | Web Specialist, Bizspace, Cassons, Enterprise Ventures and Rosebud, Federation of Small Businesses, Holmes Mill Clitheroe, Leonard Dews, LH Recruitment, Marketing Lancashire, Mattioli Woods, Mayes Accountants, NFU Mutual, Northcote at the Rovers, NWEEG, Peter Scott Printers, Preston’s College, Stonehouse Logic, Sunshine Events, WEC Group and With A Twist. The charity partner for 2017 is Cash for Kids.
