Local Business Awards -The Winners

The very first Coastal Radio LBA's was a roaring success!
A huge thank you to our headline sponsor, Danbro Business Solutions and Financial Planning, and indeed to all our 24 category sponsors too.

Also - big thanks to all our suppliers - we couldn't have done any of it without you all.

Over the past 12 weeks or so, you guys nominated, then voted for the people and businesses that you believed merited recognition in one of the 24 amazing categories.  We celebrated each of those shortlisted and the winners with a spectacular Gala Dinner Awards event in the stunning Blackpool Tower Ballroom.

A huge Thank you from Coastal Radio to everyone who attended.

See you all again next year!!
