2001 North
Herts Business Awards Winners

Presented by:
Ruby Wax
Ruby Wax, writer,
comedienne and actress. Ruby presented the fifth annual
North Hertfordshire Business Awards in 2001, in between
making episodes of her latest television success. Never
far from the headlines herself she spoke enthusiastically
to our winners sponsors and audience about the local
success stories that had fired the imagination of our
judging panel. Speaking off the cuff she kept the audience
in stitches with anecdotes and local references during
the presentation of the trophies to our winners.
