Most of us love to shop - and there are hundreds of businesses and staff that make that a fantastic experience in Wakefield.

When it comes to shopping destinations Wakefield is a city that punches above its weight. Its compact centre is home to a wide range of major retailers and unique independent stores. Wakefield is right up there as a shopping destination!

It is a celebration of this retail offering that the Wakefield District Retail Awards is based on.

The scheme is run with the support of Ridings Shopping Centre, Wakefield City Centre Partnership and Trinity Walk, and will culminate in a three-course meal and awards event at Unity Works on Saturday May 16.

Now we need you to put forward your business for as many of the award categories as you think relevant.

You can also nominate someone else's shop if you are a satisfied customer!

All you have to do is click here and complete the entry form.

Nominations are now closed for this years event - Good luck to all our nominees!
