The charity retail awards winners 2021
We held a stunning ceremony at Nottingham’s Colwick Hall on the evening of 9 September, sponsored by 1st Waste Management and compered by Robin Osterley, our Chief Executive and Emma Good, our Awards Project Manager.
The motivation of everyone to think outside the box and be innovative in creating the future of charity retail was the stand-out theme of our entries this year – showing a new level of excellence and exciting times ahead.
Thank you to all who nominated, our sponsor, the retail teams involved, our judges, everyone who made the evening a success and of course …
The winners!
