WNY Chamber celebrates Raising the Bar Awards 2026

The great and good came together to celebrate the social impact that Yorkshire’s business community create at West & North Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce’s annual Raising the Bar Awards.   

Raising the Bar celebrates all the hard work businesses put into supporting the wider community and measuring their social impact in their local area. These awards give businesses of all sizes recognition in three key areas: Environment, Education and Community.  These in turn are further broken down to celebrate small, medium and large employers in these areas.  

In the community award there were victories for the Textile Centre of Excellence (TCoE) in the small business category, Leeds Marriott Hotel in medium size and Maximus UK in the large.

The education award saw wins for Blueberry Marketing Solutions in the small business category, Mediaworks in the medium and Equans Regeneration in the large.  

Meanwhile the environment award saw Madison May Consulting take the glory in the small business category, Swinton Estate in the medium and Edwards Commercial Cleaning in the large.  

The event was compered by renowned broadcaster and presenter Andrew Edwards and hosted by the event’s sponsor Flutter Entertainment.
