We’re excited to announce that our Founder and Managing Director, Liz Hutchings, has been shortlisted as Female Entrepreneur of the Year in the Great British Business Community Awards 2025, a prestigious event recognising outstanding businesses and leaders across the country.

With a record of almost 2,000 entries from across the UK, this year’s competition was one of the toughest yet, showing the event’s national reach and high standards. Reaching the shortlist is an outstanding achievement and shows Liz’s commitment to supporting local businesses and building the Total Guide network into a vibrant community.

This national recognition follows Liz’s success earlier this year, when she was named South West Female Entrepreneur of the Year, another proud moment that highlights her commitment to supporting businesses and communities across the region.

The awards ceremony will take place on Friday, 26th September, at the Crowne Plaza, Marlow. Judges will then announce the finalists and winners. For now, we are proud of Liz’s national recognition.

Liz launched Total Guide in Swindon and expanded across the South West. She connects communities and supports businesses of all sizes. This award highlights her entrepreneurial spirit and impact in Dorset and beyond.

We’ll be cheering Liz on as the winners are revealed later this month. Please join us in congratulating her!
