Kendal's Lakes Sandwiches sees success at consecutive awards events
A Kendal-based sandwich business saw success at two award ceremonies on consecutive nights in London and then Liverpool. Lakes Sandwiches was praised at the capital's Sandwich & Food to Go Designer of the Year (Sammies) event, and then, twenty-four hours later, it was named in five categories at the North West Family Business Awards. Directors Mel and Scott Walmsley said that while winning would have been "beyond fantastic," their "number one prize" had already been obtained shortly before the events took place. Mel and Scott Walmsley (Image: Supplied) Mel said: "Scott has been battling with cancer for nine months, which meant our incredible team of 12 had to upskill and cover for him during some very difficult periods of treatment. "The news that surgery and radiotherapy had been successful, with Scott receiving an all-clear a couple of weeks ago, was our greatest wish granted. "Even to be nominated for the highest honours at this time meant everything.

She added: "Our values are based on people, place, and purpose. "We are totally local.
