“We are optimistic about the future of businesses in Mansfield and Ashfield. We are committed to supporting them and our awards offer a platform to shout about individual businesses.

“The awards evening itself is always a sell-out, which clearly demonstrates the desire for businesses to celebrate one another’s hard work and successes. Being independently judged provides valuable credential that winners can go on to showcase.”
