#WIBA

The awards shine the spotlight on the women at the heart of the Bristol and Bath’s business community and pay tribute to the women whose determination and success are helping to drive Bristol and Bath’s economy.

2014 saw the first year of the awards and winners in each category of Bristol and Bath Women in Business awards were announced at a gala evening in April.

Sarah Pullen, managing director of Bristol and Bath News and Media, publisher of The Bristol Post and Bath Chronicle, said of the 2014 awards:

“This is the first year we have run the Women in Business awards and I am delighted that we have been able to launch them.

We are looking forward to some outstanding entries as we recognise the business women whose drive and determination makes such a difference.

In these challenging economic times it is good to focus on the women whose business success is helping to lead us out of recession.”

AWARDS 2015#BathPrideAwards

The Bath Chronicle Pride of Bath Awards continues to go from strength to strength.

We hear a lot about the Big Society these days, but our city has always been enhanced by people who think nothing of doing something for others. These awards are all about thanking them for what they do and giving them the credit they deserve.

The categories recognise people who go above and beyond the call of duty, those who care for others and their communities and those who have been involved in remarkable acts of bravery.

Our Bath Pride Awards 2014 were a great success and we are always interested in partnering up with businesses that share our initiative. This sponsorship pack details how you can get involved to make 2015 an even bigger success!

#BathSportsAwards

SPORTSA W A R D S 2 0 1 5

The race is on to honour the stars, the stalwarts and the unsung heroes of sport in Bath.

Now in its fifth year and firmly established as one of the highlights of the city’s sporting calendar, The Bath Chronicle Sports Awards rewards the people who power its professional and amateur clubs.

There are nine awards up for grabs – catering for every sport you can think of – and they will be handed out at a glittering ceremony at Bath Racecourse’s marquee in November.

Previous winners include Lizzy Yarnold who confirmed her status as the world’s best female skeleton athlete by being crowned Winter Olympic champion in Sochi in February 2014. Also, multiple paralympic swimming champion Stephanie Millward as a hugely popular winner of the coveted Sports Personality of the Year award in 2013. She followed in the footsteps of London 2012 hero Ed McKeever, who scooped our inaugural prize after striking canoeing gold at the home Olympics.

We look forward to you joining us as a proud sponsor of the 2015 awards and with your support, the Bath Chronicle Sports Awards 2015 will be the best yet.

We are delighted that the Bath Chronicle Sports Awards is becoming a must enter event in the sporting calendar.

The event sets out to celebrate and recognise individuals, teams and clubs who have achieved sports excellence from grassroots sports to professional level across Bath.

Every week thousands and thousands of people take part in literally hundreds of different sports across the city.

Some play for money, but the vast majority play for nothing more than the sheer love of participating in their particular sport.

The Bath Chronicle aims to highlight, not only those who excel in their sport, but those unsung heroes and heroines whose work goes on unnoticed behind the scenes.

Sport is such an important part in many people’s lives and The Bath Chronicle Sports Awards will be looking to recognise their achievements.

We hope that clubs – big and small – will join us in celebrating success and dedication at all levels of sport in and around Bath.

Editor, Bath Chronicle
