The Harrogate Advertiser Business Excellence Awards Night 2024
The Business Excellence Awards, hosted by the Harrogate Advertiser, recently celebrated the outstanding achievements of the district's premier businesses in a dazzling ceremony, and Harrogate Chamber of Commerce were in attendance as one of the events sponsors.
Martin Mann (Chief Exec) and Phill Holdsworth (President) were invited to the Harrogate Advertiser Business Excellence Awards which seek to spotlight the achievements and contributions of the businesses that are integral to the local economy and society, celebrating their success and commitment to excellence.
The meeting started with an excellent meal, and Phill and Martin were lucky enough to share a table with the evenings host Christine Talbot who is a good friend of our previous Chief Exec David Simister, and they were able to share some anecdotes and take a selfie to show to David later.
The Chamber extends heartfelt congratulations to all the winners and expresses sincere gratitude to the event organisers for a memorable evening.
