Andrew Gwynne, MP for Denton and Reddish, has revealed the winners of his annual Local Business Awards. 

The annual awards, organised by Gwynne, aim to celebrate local businesses across Denton and Reddish. There is a winner and runner-up from each ward, as well as one overall winner.

'Everyone is a winner' 

Commenting, Andrew Gwynne said: "I would like to say a huge congratulations to every single business who received a nomination. I genuinely mean it when I say that with these kinds of competitions, everyone is a winner. Thanks also to all the local people who took time to nominate their favourite business. 

"I started these awards a few years back as a bit of fun, and their success is evidence of the incredible local businesses we have access to. I look forward to getting out and about over the next week or so to hand out certificates in-person to this year's overall and ward winners. 

"Local businesses are not only commercial spaces, but they are also social and community bases. I feel very lucky to represent an area with such a diverse array of brilliant businesses."
