On 15th October, Warrington’s business community came together at Warrington Wolves Stadium for the Warrington Chamber Plus Business Awards, a particularly special edition marking the Chamber’s landmark 150th anniversary year.

The evening celebrated the ambition, innovation and resilience of businesses across the town, bringing together finalists across 11 categories.

We were thrilled to be named Business of the Year, sponsored by Sellafield Ltd.

To be recognised alongside so many outstanding local organisations, in such a milestone year for the Chamber, is a real honour for the whole labdesk team.

A huge thank you to Warrington Chamber Plus for organising such a memorable night, to Sellafield Ltd for sponsoring the award, and above all to our partners and team. We couldn’t have done it without you.
