On the night
Our Website Director, Nick, was there with nine team members. He summarised the event:
“Last night at Bluewater, we had a great time at the Dartford Business Awards! We were honoured to be nominated, shortlisted, and awarded. It was a lovely night with around 450 people from all sectors, including businesses, charities, and local leaders. This is such an honour! The Dartford council did an incredible job from start to finish. It was a well-organised, great night with fantastic food, drinks, and entertainment. Thank you for all the love and support; we couldn’t have achieved this without our amazing team, dedicated clients, and community partners.”
