Great line up of judges for the Broker News Awards
We have a terrific panel of judges assembled for the Broker News Awards 2023. My thanks to them all for agreeing to take part.
They are looking forward to reviewing your entries because, like us, they want to see the best in the business recognised. But to be recognised you have to enter: and the deadline is 17 March. The forms are easy to fill in, so you don’t have to spend days assembling the material. The judges will be looking forward to them.
Well done Katy
I have to say I was immensely proud to hear that Katy Aston from Gateway2Lease had won an award at the recent BVRLA dinner. In all the dinners I have been to (many), it’s always been winners from the leasing and rental sectors; never the broker sector. So congratulations Katy.
And congratulations xlcr Vehicle Leasing for supporting the first Women’s Football Awards.
