“We are up against manufacturing companies, service businesses including advertising and website design, as well as accountants so it’s a very mixed bag,” Jo told GiftsandHome.net. “The whole team will be attending, but it’s going to be a tough one for the judges to decide, as each business is very different. I just hope we have done enough to win at least one of the two awards. Very few Nuneaton businesses reach the finals – so that’s an achievement in itself!”

The awards are being hosted by the Coventry Telegraph and Coventry Live as a joint awards ceremony, and will be taking place at the Ricoh Arena.

Earlier this month, all finalists and sponsors were invited to a champagne and canapes reception, to enable everyone to meet up before the big night.  “It was really lovely to meet all the other finalists and to have a chat with them,” enthused Jo.
