RED ROSE AWARDS REVIEW

Winners, sponsors and judges of this year’s Red Rose Awards gathered in the spring sunshine at Eaves Hall in the Ribble Valley for a celebration of success and excellence in business.
The 2024 award winners’ reception, sponsored by Lancashire County Council, was attended by more than 100 invited guests.
The reception was also another opportunity to highlight this year’s winners and their achievements. Each received a framed certificate to go with the trophy they were presented with at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool on the night.
Guests at the gathering, which began with a drinks reception on the terrace of the country house, heard from a number of winners who shared what receiving the trophy meant for them and their teams.
The event was also told that the finalists this year represented a combined turnover of £1.5bn.
Aidy Riggott, Lancashire County Council cabinet member for economic development and growth, congratulated the winners on their successes and the role they play in the county’s economy.
He also spoke about the importance of collaboration, telling the audience: “The more we work with each other, the better we work and the better success we have.”
Councillor Riggott highlighted the wide range of council-backed business support available in the county, declaring: “We will back you in any way that we can.”
And he urged businesses to champion each other and celebrate their success, adding:

other.They will also have access to business support, including taking part in masterclasses delivered by previous award winners and expert speakers on topics such as finance, recruitment and marketing.
