This year the organisers have added a public vote category, that of the Business Hero Award. However, nominations for this accolade close on Thursday, May 14.

Do you know anyone or a company or group that deserves to be recognised? Is there someone who’s shining a light for you right now?

The category is open to a business or business person who has gone above and beyond in the face of adversity.

We must still make every effort to ensure our staff and our businesses continue to adapt and thrive.

The final is on September 16 at Bedford Corn Exchange.
