Call for Family Business entries

Are you a family business in the Midlands? Then consider entering the annual Midlands Family Business Awards. The competition was formally launched at a breakfast event at the Opus Restaurant in central Birmingham last Wednesday. The Awards, now in their 9^th year, are the UK’s only independent and not-for-profit initiative for family businesses, created and organised by Wilson’s, a third generation family business providing insurance and financial advice. Again this year there are 10 Award categories and each has its own judging panel. The initiative has to date raised around £32,000 for good causes. Winners will be announced at a glittering ceremony in Leicester on November 22. To find out more visit www.familybusinessawards.co.uk
