23 July, 2015
City Health Care Partnership CIC (CHCP CIC) has been shortlisted for the Social Enterprise of the Year for the 2015 Lloyds Bank National Business Awards. CHCP CIC is a co-owned company providing health and care services to people in Hull, the East Riding of Yorkshire, North and North East Lincolnshire, Knowsley, St Helens and Wigan.
Going up against other finalists, CHCP CIC will compete for the prestigious award, with the winner being revealed at the Lloyds Bank National Business Awards gala dinner held on 10 November at Park Lane’s Grosvenor House Hotel in London.
CHCP CIC’s chief executive Andrew Burnell said, “We are very excited to be shortlisted for a National Business Award for the second year running and delighted that social enterprises continue to be recognised as an important business model in this prestigious competition. It’s very gratifying that the quality of our work and our staff has been acknowledged in this way.”
An all-encompassing range of industries is represented in the shortlists for this year’s awards, with companies from recruitment and children’s clothing to pet food and online marketing being selected for the chance to win a coveted Lloyds Bank National Business Award. The scale of the finalists is just as varied, with companies turning over less than a million pounds to over £25 million, employing 20 people or over 70,000 people.
Tom Broughton, Programme Director of the National Business Awards, said, “The quality and range of this year’s entries exceed even those of last year, which is no mean feat. The draw of being involved with the Lloyds Bank National Business Awards has seen companies from all kinds of industries submit applications, which have been narrowed down using our thorough and comprehensive scoring system. We are now looking forward to the next step in the judging process and meeting some of the finalists face-to-face.”
Finalists were chosen from the hundreds of businesses that entered or were nominated across 18 award categories. They will now prepare for live presentations to expert judges who will decide the overall winners that will be revealed at the awards ceremony on 10 November.
