Businesses have gone through some horrendously tough times over the last couple of years – so we thought it was time we shared some love!
We’re on a mission to show thebestof local businesses just how much they are appreciated with our LOCAL and LOVED AWARDS for 2022. And we need your help.
Here at thebestof we’ve always ran our business of the year awards, but this year we wanted to do things a little bit differently. Our Local and Loved awards are open to all businesses across Barrow and Furness – regardless of whether they are a best of member or not.
That means that all you have to do is tell us which local business you love and why.
You can pop over to thebestof website and recommend a business, or if they have a feature on our site – leave them a review. Every recommendation or review will count as a vote for that business in their respective category.
This year we have 8 categories:
thebest Local & Loved Place to Shop
thebest Local & Loved Place to Visit
thebest Local & Loved Place to Eat & Drink
thebest Local & Loved Health, Beauty & Wellbeing Business
thebest Local & Loved Local Charity
thebest Local & Loved Trades
thebest Local & Loved Professional Services
thebest Local & Loved Community Hero
Every business will then be thanked and awarded with one of our coveted Loved and Local 2022 certificates.
So, let’s buck the trend - show some love and celebrate all the good things about Barrow and Furness. We are so lucky to have some fantastic businesses on our doorsteps. Traders and businesses who have pulled out all the stops to carry on serving us with a smile over the last few years despite the pressures and struggles they’ve faced.
So please get voting, and lets share the love with our local businesses.
A little bit of love goes a long way!
