The Brighton & Hove Food and Drink Festival team won the award for leisure and tourism at the Sussex Business Awards held at the de Vere Grand, Brighton on December 2.

Organisers of the Brighton Food and Drink Festival, including Nick Mosley from Brighton Visitor, Paula Seager from Natural PR, Adam Style from Style Accountants and Andrew Kay from Latest7 collected the trophy from Ruth Badger from the TV show The Apprentice.

The festival, now in its ninth year, has grown from strength to strength and now brings £4.1 million into the local economy by attracting thousands of visitors to the city and boosting local food and drink businesses, as well as providing many fun foodie events for the local community to enjoy.

Paula Seager, MD of Natural PR, who promotes the festival, said:
"It's terrific to be recognised for our work on this event, which is run entirely by volunteers and we are all particularly proud of Nick Mosley, our director, who has taken the awards to a new level this past year."

The festival team is running Christmas mini-markets every Saturday and Sunday at Brighton Station until Christmas and the next big festival will be the Spring Harvest in April 2012.
