Touchwood takes home three prestigious awards

Touchwood Solihull is celebrating a triple victory after securing two wins at this year’s Sceptre Awards and one accolade at the Solihull Chamber of Commerce Awards 2023.

The centre took home wins for ‘Community Initiative of the Year – Wales & The Midlands’ and ‘Car Park of the Year’ at the 2023 Sceptre Awards recently; an annual celebration of excellence in shopping centre management, highlighting management teams, retailers and suppliers across the UK.

Touchwood’s Wellness Retreat gained recognition, taking home the regional award for ‘Community Initiative of the Year’. Initially a one-week project launched in support of World Mental Health Day 2022, the retreat was so well received that it is now a permanent feature at Touchwood. It offers free coffee, cake, foot massages and most importantly, company for those in need of someone to talk to.

The centre was also awarded ‘Car Park of the Year’, with the judges describing the win as “no surprise”. The centre’s car park excels on all fronts, offering shop mobility, car valeting, electric vehicle charging and simple payment via the RingGo app to shoppers – all available with zero car crime space.

Last week, Touchwood rounded off its winning streak at the Solihull Chamber Awards 2023, securing the award for ‘Excellence in Sales, Marketing & Communications’. The accolade further demonstrates the centre’s commitment to create an exciting and diverse destination for visitors both locally and nationally.

On the wins, Tony Elvin, general manager at Touchwood, said: “We are delighted to have been awarded three prestigious wins at this year’s Sceptre Awards and Solihull Chamber Awards. To take home recognition for our community initiatives, car park and sales and marketing activities demonstrates the huge team effort from everyone at Touchwood to make this possible, as we all continue to create the best possible experience for our guests.”
