The ceremony was held at the Grand Hotel Birmingham, providing a captivating backdrop to celebrate the collective accomplishments of Contractor Partners and individuals who have created a positive societal change through their work.
Embracing the event’s sustainability and ethical sourcing theme, the trophies awarded to winners were crafted from eco-friendly bamboo. Additionally, attendees were presented with gifts from Tony’s Chocolonely, renowned for their dedication to combating modern slavery.
During the ceremony, guests opened their Tony’s chocolate bars, hoping to uncover a golden ticket that would lead to a regional prize sourced from independent, local businesses, sponsored by Headline Sponsor Compliance Chain.
Adding to the event’s inspirational atmosphere, Cemal Ezel, CEO of Change Please, graced the stage as a guest speaker. Change Please is a socially conscious coffee company that not only trains formerly homeless individuals as skilled baristas but also provides comprehensive support in areas such as housing, finances, and therapy.
Award-winning Content Creation House, Culture City, a local partner specialising in high-end creative and corporate film, successfully captured the event. Procure Partnerships Frameworks has established an ongoing collaboration with Culture City to ensure the capturing of significant milestones throughout projects.
