Viva signs on to help businesses shine at Red Rose Awards

August 2025 General News

Viva has returned to support the Red Rose Awards as an ‘Entry Support Partner’.  

The Red Rose Awards, now in its 16th year, will be held at Blackpool’s Winter Gardens on March 12 and is a celebration of business across the county.  

Last year, the award-winning agency, based in Rawtenstall, created a free downloadable guide and podcast featuring seasoned Red Rose judges to help entrants. 

Now, Viva is also planning another podcast to demystify the awards entry process and give businesses practical advice to craft winning entries.  

Tony Garner, managing director at Viva, said: “For the team at Viva, being a sponsor is like being part of a big Red Rose Awards family. 

“It’s great to shine a light of positivity on the great work being done by the business community in Lancashire. 

"The nature of our work means we are often creating award winning entries for our clients.  

“As Entry Support Partner we want to share our expertise and experience with some helpful tips on how to shine."  

Richard Slater, chairman of Lancashire Business View, said: “Viva coming on board could not come at a better time with entries opening soon. 

“Viva has a great reputation for winning awards and its work last year helped entrants showcase their achievements and stand out from the crowd.”  

The Red Rose Awards will be opening for nominations on September 1. 

The awards are staged in association with Forbes Solicitors and Barclays.

The awards are sponsored by: Bigtank, Brysdales, Chorley Council, Farleys Solicitors, Harrison Drury, High Court Enforcement, Napthens, PDS Engineering, Peter Scott Printers, Pierce, PM+M, Shout Connect, Sowena Group, The Fun Experts, University of Lancashire and Viva. Confirmed supporters are: Community Foundation for Lancashire, Merchandise4Impact, Marketing Lancashire and The Royal Dyche.
