“The Lloyds Bank British Business Excellence Awards are the gold standard in business awards. We were really honoured to have won best New Business in 2022. The stringent entry requirements, the pitch process and the quality of the judging panel meant that the win was all the more meaningful to us. Up against over 10 other finalists we were delighted to have come out on top and the judges feedback was extremely powerful. The team at the BBEA have ensured to keep in close contact with us and recently hosted a winners Luncheon where we got to network with other businesses some of whom we plan to work with. Winning this award has given our business both national and international renown” Samantha Faiers, Co-Founder, Revive Collagen
"Winning the British Business Excellence Awards was an incredible honour for our organisation! This award certainly put us on the map. It gave us the credibility and prestige to go on and then achieve several other awards, which has helped to solidify our success. For me, what really sets BBEA apart are their organisers. They are passionate about business and entrepreneurship and go above and beyond to use their contacts to help smaller businesses reach even greater heights. This level of commitment is truly inspiring and I recommend anyone considering applying to these awards to do it! The BBEA is one of the country's premier awards programmes, and it's something that everyone should be striving towards. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication, but it can make all the difference for any business or individual seeking recognition. The rewards are well worth the effort – after winning this award, I can attest that our organisation has gone from strength to strength!" Abdul R Shiil, Co-Founder & Director, Sahan Cares CIC

“Thanks again to you, Sarah and the whole team for the awards. We genuinely enjoyed every moment of the process. As you know to have received a Highly Commended against such an amazing line up of Nominees was amazing. We are all so proud of this achievement. Thanks for the opportunity to be part of the awards. What a great night we all had, excellent host in Anita Rani, loved her chat with Tom Kerridge, and Trinny Woodall at the beginning was a great opening to the theme of business and success. Sarah's introduction covered some great points, and I liked that she told it as she felt, you could see the passion that went into this. Still not sure how the poet did it (must think of some hard words for next time!!) and to hear Innocent sing was a highlight. You could fit no more into what was a packed night of celebration. Look forward to seeing you and everyone again and don't forget us if you come to the island”
Dale Howarth – Director, WRS Systems. (BBEA 2024 Finalist and High Commendation)
