About us We’re a specialist law firm providing bespoke legal advice in three key practice areas.
Our regulation and fraud practices advise clients undergoing regulatory or fraud related investigations, as well as prosecuting fraud.
Meanwhile, our residential conveyancing practice provides the full suite of conveyancing services including complex transactions.
Our achievements We have a proud history of advising clients on significant and high-profile fraud and professional regulation cases, such as acting on the EURIBOR trading scandal and a major Trading Standards case.
Our conveyancing practice worked on nearly 700 deals last year, and it achieved a 100 per cent success rate in completing on transactions ahead of the stamp duty holiday deadline.
As a female-led firm, we are also exceptionally proud to champion women’s representation in the legal sector.
What it would mean to win To win against so many outstanding finalists would be such an accolade.

About us Advocacy Focus lives by the motto of “nothing about me, without me”.
We want every person we support to know that they have power and can take control over every decision in their lives.
We help people live the lives they want to live, and we’ve already done that for 2,903 Lancashire residents in the last 12 months alone.
Our achievements
Advocacy Focus achieved Gold in Mind’s Workplace Wellbeing Index in 2022 and was also awarded Top Employer out of 119 organisations that took part nationally.
At the National Advocacy Awards in 2022, one of our Independent Advocates won the award for Outstanding Advocate. This prestigious award acknowledges the courage, passion and dedication that our Independent Advocate demonstrated to the people they work with.
What it would mean to win
Winning a Red Rose Award would provide us with the opportunity to celebrate the important work we do in looking after Lancashire and help us raise the profile of advocacy, as often people are unaware that advocacy support exists. We are excited to showcase the amazing work we do to achieve our mission of “Advocacy for All”.

About us We are experts in the human-built world. The structures that surround us and shape us – schools and offices, hospitals and homes.
We bring both sustainable principles and commercial focus to any development or redevelopment – ensuring each building works for its users, owners and the environment.
Our achievements The first half of 2022 was transformative for AG with our re-brand to AG Built Environment Consultancy, which is reflective of the impact our services have beyond purely projects and buildings, extending to peoples’ lives through their environment and championing the environment around us.
We formally created our Sustainability and Energy Performance Advisory, which works in conjunction with our wider business to provide tailored advice to our clients.
As well as a new service offering, AG has increased its North West presence with the opening of a Liverpool office to complement the existing Preston and Manchester bases.
What it would mean to win At AG we are always reviewing our processes, approaches, marketplace and team member’s needs - progression and development is in our DNA.
