Chamber Awards Sponsorship Acknowledges Education Interior Fit-Out Expertise
So here we are again. The exciting time of year when the East Midlands Chamber of Commerce announces that their business awards are open for entries. The awards are split into the three regions covered by the East Midlands Chamber; Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Leicestershire
For the second consecutive year, we’re extremely proud to be sponsoring the Education and Business Partnership category in the Leicestershire Chamber awards. The award recognises schools, colleges and further education providers that engage effectively with business.
We’re sponsoring this particular category having worked with some pretty inspirational education providers in our time. We’ve seen first-hand how the experiences of students can be positively transformed through these partnerships, so the opportunity to support an award celebrating this was just too good to miss.
You can find out more about our reasons for sponsoring the award by taking a look at our projects with these fantastic education providers:
- R.E.A.L Education
- MIRA Technology Institute
- Ashby School
- Lancaster University
