Thanks to Alix for this latest news about the MyIsleofWight Awards. Ed
23 Island businesses were celebrated this week at the Island’s first ever visitor voted for awards.
The inaugural myisleofwight.com Awards, held at the Garlic Farm, saw businesses from across the tourism industry step up to be recognised for the hard work and important contribution they all make towards ensuring the Isle of Wight is a truly fantastic visitor destination.
The event, hosted by Red Funnel and myisleofwight.com, also saw the official launch of the 2013 awards. The voting is now open for 2013 and so far nearly as many votes have been cast as were made in the whole of last year’s awards – so momentum is gathering speed.
Tom Pell-Stevens, Red Funnel’s Head of Marketing said:
“We are delighted to be involved in these flagship awards – the only visitor voted for awards on the Island. It is fantastic to be able to feedback what the visitors love best about their experience to the industry in this way and we’re sure next year will be even more exciting – as the businesses competitiveness has now been unleashed!”
