Voting is now open for the Little Ankle Biters annual awards
Into it's fourth year, the awards were created to shine a light on the talented and hardworking people behind Buckinghamshire’s family friendly community.
New for 2021 is the Little Ankle Biters’ Best Community Spirit Award to recognise a family friendly business that has adapted and evolved to continue its outstanding service during lockdown.
Other new categories include Best Pregnancy Service, Best For Grown Ups and Best Charity or Not for Profit Organisation.
Little Ankle Biters is a free website providing families with trusted reviews of family friendly businesses in one place with all content written by local mums.
Company co-founder and editor of Little Ankle Biters Buckinghamshire, Michelle Cairncross, said:
“The COVID restrictions placed on our daily lives has provided us all with a far greater appreciation of those who contribute to our local community. Last year was an enormous challenge for everyone – for parents and carers trying to keep a protective layer of positivity around our family unit, and for family friendly businesses that needed to adapt and change like a chameleon to ensure survival.
“The Little Ankle Biters’ Awards are nominated and voted for by local people, providing us all with a chance to put a smile on the faces of those who have worked amazingly hard to keep our families safe and happy.”
