THERE is just one day left as the deadline for entries for this year’s Cheshire Business Awards draws to a close tomorrow (Thursday).

There has been a high number of submissions for the annual awards, which celebrate the innovation and entrepreneurial spirit of the region’s firms.

Now in their eighth year, the Cheshire Business Awards attract interest from firms from the smallest start-ups to some of the county’s biggest employers. And they attract the support and sponsorship of some of the region’s biggest and best known companies.

The winners will be announced at a gala dinner being held in the pavilion at Chester Racecourse on September 16. This has become a highly regarded event on the county’s social calendar.

The host for the evening will be TV news presenter Lucy Meacock, who is well known as a champion for Cheshire’s businesses.

Judging, by our independent panel of judges, will take place on August 1.

Entering the awards is free, and couldn’t be simpler. Just click on to our website for full details.

To book tickets for the gala dinner, call the events team on 01244 606 472 or email enquiries@cheshirebusinessawards.co.uk.
