Following the casting of 160,000 votes, the fiercely contested sixth annual talk of Manchester business awards have taken place
The Talk of Manchester Business Awards (the TOMs) took place at the Manchester Mercure Piccadilly Hotel. The glittering, black tie event, was attended by businesses from across Greater Manchester and the North West. These awards have been a tradition within Manchester for the last six years and with over 160,000 votes cast across all categories, the TOMs are one of the most fiercely contested business awards in the region.
The evening was also used as an opportunity to raise funds for Kidscan, to help continue the vital research work they do to develop treatments designed specifically for children with cancer. Kidscan is one of the only charities in the UK solely dedicated to combating children’s cancer.
Founder and Chairman of the TOMs, Paul Kilroe, added: “Congratulations to all of our winners and nominees, and many thanks to our sponsors who made this event possible. Nights like this really demonstrate what a thriving business community we have here in the North West.
“Particular thanks to everyone for their generous donations to Kidscan: we are delighted that the event raised around £4,000. Kidscan are an inspirational charity who do amazing work every day, and one the Talk of Manchester Awards are extremely proud to support.”
