The winner will receive a bespoke package of support provided by The Entrepreneurs’ Forum and its partners Eversheds, PwC and Yorkshire Bank and will include time from each supporting partner tailored to the winner’s aims and ambitions and might include a full business MOT, a financial health check and other business issues.

Paul said: “Personally to me, winning this award would mean two really key things, its validation. Of myself and of BCT Aspire; people over the years think I’m absolutely crazy to have done what I’ve done and to attempt to do what I’ve attempted. The other side to it is that BCT aspire isn’t just a job, it’s a life and a passion.

For BCT itself its increased exposure of BCT, we haven’t been going that long and our marketing has been by word of mouth, people are slowly but surely finding out about our work sometimes its frustrating that I know that we do a lot of good work that people never find out about, but that’s not the key because as long as we help the people that we try to help that’s what really matters. It will give us that chance to push forward and give us the chance to deliver a lot more of the work that we want to.”

We would be extremely grateful if you would take a minute to support Paul and also forward this release through your own organizations.
