FOUNDER of a Middlewich-based marketing agency, Emma Dalzell, has been nominated for a prestigious National Women in Business Award for the second year running.


Emma, who is the founder and managing director of Bare Bones Marketing, based in Brooks Lane, was shortlisted in the North West regional category in 2015, and has been nominated for the same category again this year.


Emma said: “I am thrilled to have been nominated for a National Women in Business Award for the second year running, and I’m delighted at the prospect of a Middlewich business being represented at such a prestigious, and nationally-recognised, awards ceremony”.


“Bare Bones Marketing continues to go from strength to strength, and since my 2015 shortlisting, we have achieved so much for our clients as a small business. I’m extremely proud to be recognised for our work with business, education, charities and the community.”


The annual Women in Business Awards (WIBA) is run by Forward Ladies, an organisation dedicated to the training and development of women in business.


The awards comprise four regional heats, with Emma’s nomination being made in the North West, Isle of Man, Wales and Ireland category. This year, North West regional winners will be crowned at a WIBA ceremony held on October 21 in Manchester.


Emma is recognised as a successful local businesswoman, and since she set up Bare Bones Marketing in 2011, the agency has been the winner of South Cheshire Best Start up Business of the Year in 2012, a South Cheshire Small Business of the Year finalist in 2014, and a South Cheshire Excellence in Customer Service Awards finalist in 2015.
