Skipton Bid – Skipton Business Awards
We were delighted once again to be part of the Skipton Business Awards, hosted by Skipton Bid at Skipton Town Hall at a glitzy ceremony on Monday 06 October. This year, Craven College was really pleased to be Headline Sponsor of this prestigious event, further cementing our ongoing relationship with Skipton Bid. The event was an evening of celebration, collaboration, and of course great food!
In addition, we were honoured to sponsor the Health & Wellbeing Business of the Year and offer our heartiest congratulations to award winners Holistic House.
Two of our Travel and Tourism students attending the business awards, to assist with ushering and welcoming guests, and serving refreshments which was a great chance for them to gain some valuable experience in a situation that’s really relevant to their course, but also for them to contribute in a really positive way to the community they’re part of.
Anita Lall, Principal and CEO of Craven College said, “”We’ve been at the heart of the Skipton community for 200 years, we work with numerous businesses in the area, I’m Vice Chair of the Skipton Bid and the Chair is one of our Governors so there’s a really special relationship between us. For us, being involved with Skipton Bid means investing in our community, and giving something back.
The Skipton Bid has also opened up so many opportunities for our students, both being part of the Business Awards event but also through giving work experience and projects. This Awards event really recognises all the excellent businesses local to Skipton, and our sponsoring the event is a way of saying thank you to them all and acknowledging our excellent relationships as we help develop the workforce of the future, with the unique skills they need to thrive
A huge congratulations to all businesses nominated tonight, and of course to the wonderful array of award winners“
