The best and brightest of Weston-super-Mare’s business community will be celebrated at an awards night organised by Weston Chamber of Commerce in January.

Nominations are now open for a range of categories saluting leaders in customer service, innovation, green practice and promotion of Weston itself.

Last year’s inaugural event saw 10 winners crowned, including Weston Hospicecare, Rose And Amber, Backyard Cinema and Vinnie’s.

A chamber spokesman said: “At the 2016 awards, our MP, John Penrose threw down the gauntlet to make the 2017 event even better. I think it’s safe to say the Weston Business Awards go from strength to strength.”

Awards will be presented during a £35-a-head dinner at the Royal Hotel on February 4.
