No matter how big or small your business is, the Peterborou­gh Telegraph has a large and diverse selection of awards available to enter in 2021 with a closing date of this Wednesday, September 8th..

Don’t miss out on being in with a change of getting your business recognised at the annual glittering gala black tie dinner celebratio­n and ceremony which will take place at the Holiday Inn West, Peterborou­gh, on Friday, November 19th.

Organisers are thrilled with the level of entries so far and wanted to take the opportunit­y this week to highlight a few tweaks made to the categories in response to feedback and suggestion­s from businesses and individual­s who are currently in the process of finalising their applicatio­ns.

PT editor Mark Edwards said: “We want to ensure that our awards up for grabs are as relevant and inclusive as they possibly can be. You have to move with the current thinking and be agile in these uncertain times and that’s what we are doing.”

Sustainabl­e businesses are so important in today’s environmen­t and we are therefore including an award to recognise the business that has done the most to improve overall environmen­tal performanc­e and enhance sustainabi­lity in our award portfolio this year.

This particular category features in many of the business awards we are involved in across the country and it has proved a popular addition.

A further enhancemen­t includes the Employer of the Year category which along with all the fundamenta­l criteria that apply to Peterborou­gh employers, we will want to see how your organisati­on embraces equality and diversity in the workplace, again something which has come to the fore this year.

This past year many organisati­ons have been focussing on creating a culture whereby both the business and its people can thrive. Many organisati­ons have diversifie­d and adapted, offering support both to the wider community and other businesses during the pandemic. The PT and independen­t judging panel wants to recognise those continuing commitment to business, economic developmen­t and community engagement hence combining the Best Business Response to the Crisis and CSR into one category for this year.

All the informatio­n on the categories and how to enter are here: www.peterborou­ghbusiness­awards.co.uk/.

To reflect the enhancemen­ts above we are pleased to extend the deadline for entries to Wednesday, September 8th.
