The ABBBAs 2026: 218 days and counting!
A warm welcome & team update
We recently held our first committee meeting for 2026, and we’re delighted to welcome James Broomfield from Our Tech as a committee member. At the same time, Lauretta Wright has stepped outside of the committee to take on a more strategic role across The ABBBAs.
You can meet the full team here.
We’d love your support
We’ve now launched a Business Profile for The ABBBAs! If you’ve ever been involved – whether as an attendee, sponsor, finalist, winner or charity partner – we’d be so grateful if you could leave us a quick review. It really helps other local businesses discover the awards:
It's right this way to leave a quick review (thank you! 🙏)
