The Team @ InTouch Rugby .<\/p>\n<p><strong>OFFICIAL AWARDS ANNOUNCEMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>United Kingdom, 2020 \u2013 SME News Magazine has announced the winners of the 2020 UK Enterprise Awards.<\/p>\n<p>If we\u2019ve learned anything over the last few months, it is that the British entrepreneurial spirit is not easily extinguished. Indeed, it has remained resilient, agile and dynamic despite previously inconceivable difficulty. For many \u2013 companies young and old \u2013 it has been a baptism of fire with some of the worst accelerants imaginable. It was a perfect storm that few \u2013 if any \u2013 were prepared for. Yet, as we\u2019re seeing now, many have emerged from the COVID-19 pandemic on steady legs and ready to face the remainder of the year (and beyond).<\/p>\n<p>Now in its fourth year, the SME UK Enterprise Awards continues to recognise SMEs of all sizes and across the UK who are endeavouring to bettering business in their industries. Whether it\u2019s by nourishing rich internal cultures to promote employee satisfaction, by offering next-level customer service, or through an enduring dedication to innovative products \u2013 British SMEs are truly the lifeblood of the country\u2019s economy and business landscape. Ultimately, and without question, they deserve to be recognised as figureheads of change, and drivers of creativity.<\/p>\n<p>Award Coordinator Jessie Wilson discusses the success of this year\u2019s programme: \u201cAs always, it has been a pleasure and a privilege to contact those that have been awarded in the SME UK Enterprise programme. I hope you all have a wonderful \u2013 and productive- rest of the year ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>SME News prides itself on the validity of its awards and winners. The awards are given solely on merit and are awarded to commend those most deserving for their ingenuity and hard work, distinguishing them from their competitors and proving them worthy of recognition.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about our award winners and to gain insight into the working practices of the \u201cbest of the best\u201d, please visit the SME News website where you can access the winners supplement.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sme-news.co.uk\/update-my-winners-listing\/?e=gary@intouchrugby.com&amp;a=237928\">www.sme-news.co.uk\/update-my-winners-listing\/?e=gary@intouchrugby.com&amp;a=237928<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-626221\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/photo-1502214722586-9c0a74759710.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"410\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-626222\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/photo-1508904635850-d986b19765d0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"410\" height=\"615\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-626223\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/photo-1514820720301-4c4790309f46.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"346\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/photo-1514820720301-4c4790309f46.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/photo-1514820720301-4c4790309f46-195x110.jpg 195w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-626224\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/photo-1515577756537-d9af957a75dc.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"403\" height=\"615\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-626225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/photo-1530103862676-de8c9debad1d.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"410\" \/> \u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-626227\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/photo-1531686264889-56fdcabd163f.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"410\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To say we are excited to announce that WE HAVE WON &#8220;Best Online Rugby Publication 2020&#8221; @ the UK enterprise Awards.. is an understatement!
