About The RCT Business Awards
Celebrating The Business Community In The Rhondda Cynon Taf
Participants in the awards last year not only saw an increase in traffic but also gained much-needed recognition and pride in their work. Beth Winters, the founder of the awards, said, "We were overwhelmed by the response last year.
To see so many businesses and individuals recognised for their hard work was truly heart-warming. It's also fantastic to see our community come together and support one another, particularly in these difficult times."
This year, we want to continue celebrating the soul of the Valley's but make it bigger and better with our partnership with RCT Business Club.
We know times are tough, but the awards are a chance to shine a light on our incredible community and encourage people to continue shopping locally where they can.

These awards are our way of saying thank you.
