Remember to nominate your favourite Inverness city centre businesses
Nominations for your favourite city centre businesses for the Inverness City Centre Business Awards close this Sunday.
Organised by Inverness BID and sponsored by the Inverness Courier you can nominate your go-to eatery, a beloved retailer, an outstanding service or a hard-working charity that consistently goes the extra mile to give them the recognition they deserve.
Everyone who votes will be entered into the prize draw to have a chance to win a £100 Inverness City Centre Gift Card.
Nominations close at midnight on Sunday, October 13, when the shortlist of finalists will be announced, and the public will once again be able to vote for the winners.
Craig Duncan, co-chairman of Inverness BID, said: "These awards are a unique celebration of the hard work and dedication which help to make Inverness city centre a great place to live, work and visit.

Fellow co-chairman Colin Craig added: "It’s easy to get involved.
“Just scan the QR code or click on the link on the news section of the BID website to cast your votes.

Lorna Reynolds of Colin Campbell Jewellers, winner of the independent retailer of the year award in 2023, explained: “Winning meant so much to us because it came from the people we work hard to serve every day.”
