The Epsom & Ewell Business Awards are back in town, on the quest to find new business-minded individuals and entrepreneurial talent.

Last year, Jessica Rea – local milliner and OUT’s local hero – took home the award of Best Woman in Business, whilst Yo Sarnie – signature sandwich and salad extraordinaire – won Best Business for Customer Service. If only there was an award for Best Bacon, Avo + Halloumi Bagel, we reckon they’d have won that too… This year, entrants can compete across 10 different categories, all of which can be found here.

So, if you know of a young rising entrepreneurial star worthy of recognition, or maybe a local magazine has caught your eye for its commitment to the community (we wonder who that could be), make sure you have your say! MP Chris Grayling has officially declared nominations open and we have until 30 September to enter.
