Luton Excellence Awards 2023
Every day committed individuals and dedicated teams working for Luton Council go the extra mile to support our residents and to achieve our vision for Luton. Over the last year that commitment has continued to grow to exceptional levels.
We have so many examples of employees working collaboratively, ambitiously, respectfully, whilst empowering and supporting each other, and reflecting our core value that Luton is a council that CARES. This year, our award categories will reflect outstanding achievements in each of these five areas, along with a number of other team and individual awards. Our theme for this year’s award is ‘We take our hats off to you’.
The Luton Excellence Awards has established itself as a highly successful initiative, engaging not only the employees of Luton Council but also our extensive network of business partners. The event in 2022 was a remarkable success and we are hoping that the 2023 awards will be greater than ever, with the inclusion once again of our Long Service Awards.
Luton Excellence Awards provides an ideal opportunity for businesses to increase awareness of their organisation to decision-makers and opinion formers, including MPs, councillors, senior local government officers, partners and stakeholders throughout the region. The sponsorship packages below include a range of pre- and post-event publicity, along with branding and networking opportunities at the event itself.
We are pleased to confirm the opportunity to sponsor the awards is now available. For further information please see our sponsorship pack or please contact Victoria Fortune, Sponsorship and Advertising Assistant at Luton Council, who will be happy to discuss your involvement. Please note awards will be offered on a first come first served basis.
