Judges Quote :

I have worked in the mutual sector for a number of years and fully appreciate the role that banks can play in building communities. As a mutual bank, we are totally committed to serving the community in which we operate, and as a local boy from Maidstone, I am especially passionate about helping to grow and develop our County. The Kent Excellence in Business Awards give us a great opportunity to support thriving local companies.
