Big Ambition for London Small Business
t4Local from London has been nominated for a prestigious award that recognises small businesses up and down the country for their growth, creativity and commitment to their local communities.
t4Local is nominated for the Supply Chain Champion award (for b2b suppliers) at The Small Awards.
From bricks and mortar retailers to innovation-led start-ups, social enterprise champions to supply line legends, businesses from across all sectors have a chance of awards glory at this year’s ceremony, including t4Local, which connects local businesses, charities, councils and worthy causes with their community. Celebrating their 20th anniversary this year (1999!).
Winners of The Small Awards will be crowned at an event at Marylebone’s historic St Mary’s church. There are eleven categories, all highlighting the vibrancy of the UK’s small business sector which turns over £1.9 trillion each year.
One leading small business will hope to follow in the footsteps of Peterborough salon Serenity Loves, winner of the Small Business of the Year award in 2018. The salon is unique for offering an onsite supervised crèche, which filled a gap in the market for parents in need of childcare as part of a wider commitment to supporting its community.
The full list of categories at The Small Awards 2019 includes:
- Digital Star for best digital only business
- High Street Hero for best high street business
- Heart of Gold for the business that contributes most to its community
- Legacy Award for best family business
