Countdown To Prestigious Awards

The countdown has begun to one of Yorkshire’s premier social events – the annual Yorkshire Business Awards organised by Variety The Children’s Charity…and our dynamic video will kick off the ceremony.

The event is being staged at the Queen’s Hotel in Leeds on Friday December 8.

We’ve been filming with some of the shortlisted nominees for the Awards which feature categories such as Business Leader Of The Year, Yorkshire Board Of The Year, SME Of The Year and Young Business Of The Year, celebrating all that is best in Yorkshire business.

A second video, filmed by Good Call Media’s Fiona Molloy, will highlight the moving story behind the appeal that will be run by Variety as part of the fund raising event.

Variety has provided over 5,000 Sunshine Coaches in the past 51 years, nearly 200 of those are run on Yorkshire’s roads. Our Sunshine Coach programme enables children with disabilities to develop their life skills by enjoying activities such as riding for the disabled, swimming lessons, residential trips and accessing Variety at Work (Variety Great Days Out).

Variety Great Days Out provides educational outings, events, days out and special treats for schools where children are either disabled or come from a very deprived background. Last year Variety Great Days Out entertained over 3,500 children and 400 carers. Variety Great Days Out provides respite from the worries many children face in their everyday lives and most importantly creates lasting happy memories which sadly are few and far between.
