GLITTERING AWARDS EVENING

Hills’ best businesses recognised
PHYLLIS MCGRAW
FABULOUS frocks, cheers and tears (of joy) were the order of the evening as the winners of this year’s The Sydney Hills Local Business Awards celebrated their success on May 2.

Acceptance speeches ranged from teary and emotional to wildly humorous but they shared one thing in common – the heartfelt gratitude of the recipients to the staff, customers and community that support them.

The celebration evening was held at Castle Hill RSL, as 240 finalists and their guests enjoyed a three-course meal and entertainment by artists’ names here.
 
Western Sydney Business Access was on hand to capture all the excitement as the finalists were announced, complete with images on the big screen, followed by huge cheers as the winners’ names were read out and they took to the stage to claim their trophies.

As always, the highlight of the night was the announcement of the Business of the Year.

Castle Hill Medical Centre took home the coveted trophy, having already claimed the Best Health Improvement Service title earlier in the evening.

Belle Property principle Kellie Burns was named Business Person of the Year, her business having earlier taken out the Best Real Estate Agency gong, while the Youth Award went to Stacie Hickie of LJ Hooker Castle Hill.

Awards founder and Precedent Productions managing director Steve Loe said the evening was a huge success.

“There was an electric atmosphere throughout the night,” he said.

The finalists’ excitement was palpable and, as always, people celebrated not just their own success, but cheered for everyone else in the room.
 
“It was a sell-out event, as always, which goes to show just how popular The Sydney Hills Business Awards are with the community.

“Our MC Paul Hancock kept the evening flowing smoothly and numerous people came up to me during and after the event to say how much they enjoyed themselves.”

Mr Loe congratulated all the winners and finalists on their success.

“The Local Business Awards exist to recognise the vital role business people play in the lives of their communities.

“While only one business from each category can be recognised as a winner, the achievements of all finalists are worth being recognised and celebrated.

“As official media partner for The Sydney Hills Local Business Awards, Western Sydney Business Access has published a winners feature in this month’s edition that recognises all category winners from the presentation evening.
 
“Of course, the awards are only possibly with the support of major sponsors Castle Hill RSL Club, Castle Towers, Stockland, Rouse Hill Town Centre, Winston Hills Mall and Sydney Hills Business Chamber as well as our media partner Western Sydney Business Access.

“Their involvement proves their commitment to their community and the businesses that thrive there.”
