We are excited to bring the celebrations to Yorkshire once again and honor our deserving heroes, most of which go unnoticed – until now! Yorkshire certainly thrives on inspiration. We stirred a massive media interest from radio, press, and TV too throughout the last few years. By sponsoring you are not only helping unsung heroes receive the applause they so deserve but you help us raise vital funds for our chosen charity.
We offer you exclusivity in your sector, but be quick as all sponsorship is sold on a first come first serve basis only.
A message from our Headline Sponsors, Yorkshire Payments:
“Having been a close follower and supporter of YCA for several years, it’s inspiring to see the exposure and support it brings to businesses across Yorkshire. When the opportunity came up to be headline sponsor, we signed up straight away!” James Howard
Our Background
The Yorkshire Choice Awards were founded by Jo Maltby and Melanie Malcolm who saw an opportunity to recognise and raise awareness of local people and independent businesses that are inspirational in their own way or in the markets they serve. The Awards demonstrate that through adversity and courage, light can shine through in so many different ways and give the inspirational nominees, finalists and winners, the exposure and applause they deserve. Since 2016 we have grown considerably, celebrating the best from Yorkshire and raising money for Charity along the way. We are proud to have supported Martin House Children’s Hospice, The Danny Jones Defibrillator Fund, St Gemma’s Hospice as well as Bethany’s Smile.
Partner Charity for 2022
Our 2022 Awards will be supporting MND Association. MND affects up to 5,000 adults in the UK at any one time, it’s a life-shortening disease and there is no cure! You can find out more about our chosen charity here
