Ones to Watch WINNER: AT Jones
What the judges said This new category focused on fast- growing businesses with turnover below £20 million. The winner has shown impressive financial growth in the past 12 months, through the delivery of several high-profile local contracts, and is led by a strong management team. What gave this company the edge was its eye to the future, and the importance placed on stewardship of the company through the creation of a ‘junior’ management board, mentored by the directors.

CSR Award of the Year WINNER: Hobbycraft Group
What the judges said Our winner demonstrated that its sustainability commitment is woven into its culture and has led to real positive change across the judging criteria. We were impressed with this business’s commitment to reducing waste and its market leading strides towards 100% reusable, recyclable, compostable packaging by 2021. We also liked how the drive to reduce waste is linked to its commitment to up-cycling and making the communities they are in better.

Gareth Ware and Stuart Macdonald from Hobbycraft and Stephanie Reeves, Irwin Mitchell
Leaders in Digitalisation WINNER: Trant Engineering What the judges said
Our winner was in some ways unexpected. It is a large, local family business that for a number of years has seen technology and innovation as a way to set itself apart. A business that has developed a market leading virtual reality offering to enable customers to ‘step into’ a newly designed scheme before even breaking ground, and has transformed and digitalised its project management and document management systems.
