New to 2022, we want to shine a light on a highly valuable awards initiative: The Great British Business Heroes Awards.
The Great British Business Heroes awards have a desire to recognise and reward those who are making hugely positive differences and contributions to support others to succeed in what is an increasingly worrying economic climate.
The initiative will celebrate businesses and individuals who are making life easier for small businesses and entrepreneurs and driving their future growth.
Are you a business hero?
After surviving the devastation that COVID-19 caused, businesses are now facing an energy crisis and a looming recession, making life increasingly difficult for those who work so incredibly hard to keep their business afloat.
What we have seen in this complex time, is businesses and individuals stepping forward to ease the struggle with amazing strategies and support systems; so despite not necessarily being able to resolve all the issues that small businesses and entrepreneurs face – they do their part to make life more comfortable. Are you one of these heroes?

With 5.5 million small businesses in the UK, making up to 99.9% of the business population in 2021, it is imperative that there is support, and that those providing it receive the recognition they deserve.
If you’re a UK business that has done your part to help businesses in need, then this new award is the perfect opportunity to recognise your team and your impact so that you can help more people and keep being a business hero!
The Great British Business Heroes awards are currently open, with the closing date for applications set for Friday 18 November and the shortlist announcement set for just over a week later.
