Whether you're a business owner, an advertiser, or a reader looking for Leicestershire's news, we're here to answer your questions.
Everything you need to know about the Niche Business Awards can be found here. You'll also find updates on LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram pages.
Nominations can be submitted via our Categories page, although the window is only open for a fixed period of time (typically between December and March). The form requires you to state the name of the nominee, provide accurate contact information for them, and state a reason as to why you believe they deserve to be nominated.
Nominate here!Anyone you feel is deserving, including yourself! That said, we especially love when people nominate friends, colleagues, or business partners, as it helps to grow the local business community, and involve people who may not otherwise be aware that the awards exist, nor that they’re even eligible. If you work for or own a company of any size that is based in Leicester or Leicestershire, you're eligible to be nominated in the Niche Business Awards. We accept nominations from anywhere in the world, as long as the nominee is Leicestershire-based.

Nomination badges are sent automatically upon successful receipt of the nomination form. Badges for finalists are typically sent the morning after the announcement event.
The Niche Business Awards ceremony usually takes place on the first Friday of September each year.
