We were pleased to join other members of our business community recently to launch the annual Leatherhead & District Business Awards at ExxonMobil's HQ. With ten categories, the Awards recognise the people and companies who go the extra mile to achieve success and/or inspire others to achieve their potential.

Alongside Prowse & Co, this year's award sponsors include ExxonMobil; Unilever; Mundays LLP; Leatherhead and District Chamber of Commerce; Surrey County Council; The Gatwick Diamond Initiative; Mole Valley District Council; the Leatherhead Advertiser; Platinum Business Magazine and Riverbridge House Business Centre.

Joanne Rogers, MD of Prowse & Co said: "We originally created the awards to support initiatives that inspire business excellence and encourage interaction between local businesses and we are delighted they have become a keynote annual event.
