Valley at Work is proud to organise Rossendale Business Awards. It is an annual showcase for the achievements, quality and diversity of the local businesses and enterprising people who make Rossendale such a great place to live, work and visit.
R-Awards Trophies
There are two R-Awards trophies. The first, which goes to all winners (except the Valley at Work Award winner), was designed by Jake Ford when he was a pupil at Alder Grange school. These are made exclusively for us by Alder Grange School every year. It demonstrates how deep the culture of enterprise runs in Rossendale.
The second trophy, which is presented to each year’s Valley at Work Award winner, is designed and made by Alexis Valentine of Walking on Glass. Alexis brings new design elements to the trophy every year which reflect different aspects of Rossendale.
R-Awards 2022
The 2023 competition will be the 14th Rossendale Business Awards, which has grown to become the largest local business event of the year.
Last year over 120 local businesses were nominated.
We are so looking forward to celebrating together at the R-Awards ceremony, which will be held on the evening of Saturday 9th December at The Ashcroft in Whitworth.
