The Sedgemoor Business Excellence Awards return in November 2026 with a fresh new look, once again celebrating the people, passion and progress that make Sedgemoor’s business community thrive.

Each year, hundreds of businesses enter to showcase their achievements, from start-ups making their mark to long-established firms leading the way in innovation, sustainability and community impact. The awards shine a spotlight on the dedication and resilience that define Sedgemoor’s business landscape, bringing together entrepreneurs, teams and community leaders for an unforgettable evening of celebration.

This year, we’re investing in making the Awards even bigger, moving to a larger venue to give our winners and finalists the recognition and reach they deserve, while the mission at the heart of the evening stays exactly the same.

If you want to be part of this year’s story, now is the time to get ready. Applications are open from Thursday 13 August to Thursday 17 September 2026, across 20 categories covering businesses of every size and specialism.

The awards evening itself is one of the highlights of the local business calendar. Guests can look forward to a black-tie dinner, live entertainment, professional photography and plenty of connecting with fellow business leaders, all wrapped up in a night that celebrates achievement, connection and community spirit.
