Burnley has been named by the government as the most enterprising area of the UK, singling out the Bondholders for special praise.
Hackney Council, Aberdeen College and the Premier League took home the other three titles. They will now go on to represent the UK at the European Awards in November.
Burnley council leader Julie Cooper said: “This is fantastic news for Burnley. We are punching above our weight and we have big ambitions. Burnley is well on its way to forging a strong international reputation as a centre of excellence for manufacturing, particularly in the aerospace industry. "This award reflects Burnley's growing stature in showing the way to the rest of the country in promoting manufacturing in Britain and puts us on the map."
