NOMINATIONS can be made in 12 categories for the Harlow Business Awards, being sponsored by the Citizen and a host of other local firms.

The same form see page 16 in this week's Citizen is used to enter your own company for an award, or to nominate someone else. If you nominate another company, the Entry Tool Kit will be sent to the nominated company.

Nominations and entries can come from any business, large or small, including charities, and must be received by Friday, July 6.

Of the 12 awards categories, ten already have sponsors. The two remaining are for sales and marketing, and training and staff development.

The winner of each category will be decided by a panel of judges and the awards will be presented by BBC Business Breakfast presenter Tanya Beckett at a gala dinner dance at the Manor of Groves Hotel, High Wych, on Friday, September 7.
