The awards are back!
A message from our Head Judge John Grainger
As we turn 21 the BECBC Awards 24 celebrate the success of business throughout Cumbria and beyond. The awards are open to organisations in our membership of all sizes and sectors and represent all that excels in the operation of a business. We recognise success in a number of sponsored categories including innovation, sustainability, growth, partnership, entrepreneurship and culture as well as outstanding individuals from both micro and larger business. The glittering awards (always sold out) ceremony in November at Energus provides a showcase for exemplar businesses and a platform for winners, finalists and sponsors, all part of Britain's Energy Coast's business community, to enhance their profile as important players in the local economy.
