THE BIG CHALLENGE 2014!

I was at The BIG Challenge Awards 2014 this evening at the Holiday Inn Royal Victoria in Sheffield hosted by David Grey MBE, Group Managing Director of OSL Group Holdings Ltd.

This is the seventh year for The BIG Challenge, which appears to go from strength to strength, and this year attracted 243 business teams from 24 academies, schools and colleges. The evening focused on the twelve academies, schools and colleges who had teams shortlisted for awards and everyone wanted to know who had won The BIG Challenge and the trip of a lifetime to Berlin, sponsored by DLA Piper! And the winning company was Aroma Blossom, developed, led and managed by Sophie, Hamza, Alexandra, Gregory and Lucy from Tapton School.

Aroma Blossom produces and sells handmade candles, soaps, bath bombs and body butters, all made from natural, vegan and eco-friendly ingredients. It was a great evening celebrating the young entrepreneurs and future business leaders from Sheffield.
