Businesses across Lancashire are celebrating after being announced as finalists in this year’s Red Rose Awards.

Successful businesses were announced after a day of rigorous pre-scoring at Northcote at the Rovers whittling down the entries to just six finalists for each of the 25 categories.

Winners will be revealed at the glittering ceremony which takes place on March 10 at Blackpool’s Winter Gardens.

Judges said the decisions during the scoring of written entries were tougher, the stories bigger and the achievements greater than ever before.

“We are excited at the prospect of bringing the county together at the Winter Gardens on March 10 to celebrate the success of Lancashire business, form new relationships and have a fantastic night!”

“It has been a great honour to be part of the judging process and we faced a very tough task when selecting a shortlist from so many strong candidates. We are now looking forward to the Awards evening and celebrating all that the county’s businesses have to offer.”

John Stanworth, director of business and corporate at Barclays in Lancashire, headline sponsor, added: “The calibre of entries this year has surpassed our expectations, so the finalists should be incredibly proud that they have made it to this stage.
