Causeway Chamber is excited to announce the launch of Causeway Coast & Glens People Awards in partnership with Go Succeed NI. All businesses and organisations throughout the Causeway Coast & Glens region are invited to submit their nominations for these awards, which feature 12 distinct categories. The Gala ceremony will take place on Thursday, 7th November 2024, at the Lodge Hotel.

The awards provide an excellent opportunity for employers and employees from organisations of all sizes to be recognised. James Kilgore, President of Causeway Chamber, emphasised the importance of these awards, stating:

“The People Awards provide a wonderful opportunity to honour and recognise our people.  business owners know that without their teams’ dedication, hard work, and loyalty, navigating the challenges of recent times would have been impossible.”

“Now is the time to highlight and appreciate the talent within our businesses and organisations. The People Awards offer a unique way to celebrate our people and our teams.”

“We aim to share positive news stories and highlight the quality roles and career opportunities available within the Causeway Coast & Glens region.”

“I encourage you to nominate at least one colleague, team member, or team for these awards. Recognise the time and effort your people have dedicated to your business and show your appreciation. Let’s take pride in our companies and our colleagues, let’s celebrate success.”

“The awards wouldn’t be possible without the generous support of our awards partner and category sponsors, and we are grateful for their continued support.”

Deputy Mayor of Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council, Councillor Tanya Stirling said, “I am delighted to be here today at the launch of Causeway Chamber’s People Awards 2024, sponsored by Go Succeed.
