Monday, 22 February 2010

Having worked in the area for several years, Apollo is delighted to be sponsoring the Barking and Dagenham Business Awards 2010.


Regional Business Development Manager Steve Edgson, Divisional Director Glenn Potter and Divisional Manager Michael Wright, attended the recent launch of the awards at Dagenham and Redbridge Football Club.

The event included a kick-about with Dagenham & Redbridge top goal scorer Paul Benson, and rising star Scott Doe. 

The awards are free for local businesses to enter and cover ten categories including; Business of the Year, Green Business and Best New Business. Apollo is sponsoring the bronze award for Community involvement including social enterprise, which is open to businesses, voluntary and community organisations that have made an outstanding contribution to the local community.  

Up to five businesses may be shortlisted for each category, with winners being awarded at the ceremony in July. There will be a grand overall winner selected from the ten categories, who will receive the top prize of £3000.

We are proud to be supporting local businesses within the Barking and Dagenham area. For Apollo, this initiative is a great way of giving something back to the community we have been working with for a number of years

Steve Edgson, Regional Business Development Manager
