As well as acknowledging the important people, the awards also acknowledge those businesses who help make every-day life happier, easier, or just that little bit more pleasurable.
Julie Doran of Bella Bambinos said they are over the moon with the award: “We are delighted to have won this fantastic award, it’s a pleasure to do what we do and we are so thankful that our hard work has paid off.
“The team are hardworking, enthusiastic and dedicated and - they are the reason we have this award and each of them should be very proud of themselves.”
