St.Helens Chamber scoops two awards
St. Helens Chamber of Commerce has scooped two awards at the British Chambers of Commerce annual awards. The latest triumph means the Chamber has won four awards in three years.
St Helens picked up the award for Most Effective Campaigning, sponsored by BT, as well as the award for Excellence in Membership Services, sponsored by CLE. The ceremony was held at the National Maritime Museum in London.
The Most Effective Campaigning award was won for the Chamber’s campaign to reduce local unemployment by getting people on the buses. Its push to start the 920 bus service to Haydock Industrial Estate came after local employers on the site highlighted that they found it difficult to recruit and retain staff due to a lack of public transport to the area.
David Frost, Director General of the British Chambers of Commerce, said: “The St Helens Chamber campaign was well-researched and effective. It had a positive impact not just on businesses and its members, but also had measurable social benefits for the area.”
