Bangor Business Awards 2005

On a balmy night in May the leading business entrepreneurs from North Down gathered at the Clandeboye Lodge Hotel to enjoy the fifth annual Bangor Business Awards.

The awards, organised by the Bangor Chamber of Commerce and Bangor & Holywood Town Centres Ltd, give recognition to the very best local businesses.

Over 350 guests, including Lady Sylvia Hermon MP and John Simpson, the well-known economics expert, waited with anticipation to find out which firms had won this year’s coveted awards.

The awards principal sponsor, First Trust Bank, was pleased to present the Commitment to Bangor Award to James Henderson from Shopmobility.  The evening raised £1000 for children’s charity “Make a Wish Foundation”.
