Between 9th and 26th October, the Rural Business Awards team has travelled across the country, over 1,200 miles in fact, stopping off at each of our six regions to throw a huge celebration of everything rural! In countryside venues near Bolton, Nottingham, Abergele, Bath, Dorking and Ipswich, we have hosted nearly 1,000 people, meeting some of the best rural businesses in Britain and hearing lots of inspiring stories along the way.
We can now reveal who was lucky enough to win one of our very special trophies, just click on a region below to find out.
