BCF’s CEO, Tom Bowtell commented, ‘Our Awards go from strength-to-strength – with over three times as any guests at our dinner compared to our first year in 2010 and a record number of entries. Our industry has achieved some amazing successes during a very tough few years, and I’m proud to represent an industry that takes sustainability, training and customer service so seriously. Well done to all our finalists, and especially our winners.’
