ENTRIES are still coming in for the Bolton and Bury Business Business Awards 2007 And Lythgoe Motor Group is the latest company to get involved, as the sponsor of the Training category in the awards, presented by The Bolton News and The Bury Times in association with Business Bolton.

Stuart Leatherbarrow, Marketing Manager at Lythgoe, said: "Training is the life-blood of any business.

"It represents investment in people and belief in the future. We are particularly pleased to sponsor this category because it allows us to get involved with a prestigious event, and because good, ongoing training is at the heart of Lythgoe Motor Group's success.

"All our sales staff are given training from the day they start, and this carries on in the branch for as long as they are with the company.

"All our sales staff sit the FSA exam every year, to make sure they are qualified to talk about what is, for many people, a major investment.

"And our after sales staff are constantly attending courses to ensure they are up to date with product development and technical details."

Following on from last year's event, the Bolton and Bury Business Awards 2007 , which are supported by towerfm will be held in the Premier Suite at the Reebok Stadium on Thursday June 28.

The hostess for the evening will be top BBC Radio Five Live presenter Victoria Derbyshire, who is originally from Bury, and the entertainment will be provided by top North-west comedian and star of Phoenix Nights, Ted Robbins.

The organisers are expecting to top the previous number of entries-nearly 100-after the success of last year's event.
