The Viva team

Viva have become the latest Lancashire business to get on board and support the Red Rose Awards as an ‘Entry Support Partner’. 

The Red Rose Awards, now in its 15th year, will be held at Blackpool’s Winter Gardens on March 13 and is a celebration of business across the county. 

Viva, based in Rawtenstall, created a free downloadable guide to help Red Rose Awards entrants with their application. 

Richard Slater, chairman of Lancashire Business View, said: “It is great to have Viva supporting us in this. 

“We want Lancashire businesses to tell us about their highlights over the past 12 months at the Red Rose Awards. 

“And hopefully this guide can give some inspiration for your awards entries.” 

Tony Garner, managing director at Viva, said: “The Red Rose Awards have a fantastic reputation for celebrating the best of Lancashire’s business community, and we’re excited to support entrants on their journey to success.  

“At Viva, we’re passionate about helping businesses tell their stories in the most compelling way possible. This aligns perfectly with our role as a sponsor and our expertise in PR. 

“We’ve created tools like our podcast and guide to demystify the awards entry process and give businesses practical advice to craft winning entries. These resources are designed to help entrants showcase their achievements and stand out from the crowd. 

“We’re looking forward to seeing the entries this year and celebrating the success of Lancashire businesses at the awards.” 

Joanne Hindley, sales director at Lancashire Business View, said: “Viva PR have a wonderful record for winning awards, not only for their own business but for clients. 

“It is great to team up with them as our Entry Support Partner and they had done a cracking podcast which is available to download and the free guide.”
