We've Done It Again — HiThrive Wins Business Consultancy of the Year at the My Local Awards 2026
We're absolutely thrilled to share that HiThrive has won the Business Consultancy of the Year award at the My Local Awards 2026 — and this one is extra special.
Over the years, we've been fortunate enough to win seven industry awards, each decided by panels of judges and industry experts. We're proud of every single one. But the My Local Awards is different — and that difference means the world to us.
This award was decided entirely by public vote. By our clients. By our community. By the people we work alongside every single day in the North East. No judges. No panels. Just you — and that makes it the most meaningful award we've ever received.
About the My Local Awards
The My Local Awards celebrate the best local businesses across the UK, with winners chosen entirely by public vote. There are no entry fees, no judging panels, and no industry insiders — just real customers and communities backing the businesses they believe in.
To win in this way — through the votes of the people we serve — is something we couldn't have achieved without the incredible support of our clients and network.
A Track Record Built on Trust
This win adds to what has been a remarkable few years for HiThrive. Since founding the business, we've been honoured to receive the following awards:
Business Consultancy Firm of the Year 2025 — Corporate LiveWire
Business Consultancy of the Year 2024/25 — Corporate LiveWire Global Awards
Best SME Business Consultants, Tyne & Wear 2024 — Management Consulting Awards
Bookkeeping Service of the Year 2024 — Corporate LiveWire Global Awards
Best Bookkeeping & Business Consultancy Firm UK 2023 — Wealth & Finance / Management Consulting Awards
Bookkeeping & Business Consultants of the Year 2022 — Corporate LiveWire Global Awards
Best SME Bookkeeping & Business Consultancy 2022 — Corporate LiveWire Global Awards
Business Consultancy of the Year 2026 — My Local Awards (voted by the public)
Eight awards. Four years. And we're just getting started.
A Heartfelt Thank You
None of this happens without the businesses who trust us with something that really matters — their strategy, their growth plans, their people challenges, their next big decision. And yes, their payroll and bookkeeping too. If you voted for us, shared our campaign, or simply told someone about HiThrive, thank you. From the bottom of our hearts.
We started HiThrive with a simple mission: to make great business support genuinely accessible to small businesses across the North East. Winning this award tells us we're on the right track.
We'll keep doing what we do — showing up, sorting it out, and being the team you can rely on.
Work With an Award-Winning Team
If you're a business looking for strategic support — whether that's growth planning, business turnaround, strategy development, or day-to-day bookkeeping and payroll — we'd love to hear from you. We're based in the North East but work with businesses right across the UK.
