Centre Manager for Marshall’s Yard, Alison Hall, said: “We had a fantastic response from businesses for last years’ awards and had a really enjoyable night.

“The DN21 awards are all about keeping things local from rewarding businesses with high turnover and employment numbers to sole traders offering something niche in their market.

“Most of all it’s about celebrating the overall offer Gainsborough has and a chance to come together for a great evening.”

Chairman of Gainsborough Trinity Football, Richard Kane, said: “The Football Club has worked hard to integrate in to the town and become an integral part of the local community.

“By working with businesses and other organisations the town is improving and with the ‘in it together’ attitude Gainsborough is becoming a place that Trinity fans can be truly proud of.”

Sponsors include EDF Energy, HSBC, WCRS, West Lindsey District Council, Pygott and Crone, MMC as well as Marshall’s Yard’s own tenants Wright Vigar and Martin and Co plus the longest established independent retailer in the town, Horsley’s.

BBC Radio Lincolnshire’s presenters Scott and Carla have once again agreed to host the night and the shortlisted applicants will be judged by independent experts via a range of mystery shopper exercises and interviews.
