A local business said it was “over the moon” after winning an award for ‘Best Tourism & Leisure Business in Wales’ at the National StartUp Awards.
Nomadic Washrooms started just four years ago after Kate and Stu Richards (pictured) couldn’t find luxury toilet hire for their own wedding.
The Forden-based company has grown and now provides washrooms across the UK for weddings, festivals, TV sets, corporate events, glamping weekends and more.
“The award has come as a bit of a shock to us, as we were excited just to be nominated, we are almost pinching ourselves,” the couple announced.
“After starting Nomadic Washrooms four years ago, to say everything has been a little crazy would be an understatement. From finding our feet in a new industry to lockdowns and everything in between, to be shortlisted was an honour. But, to win it means so much to us!”
The StartUp Awards National Series recognises entrepreneurs who have taken a good idea, turned it into an opportunity, and taken the risk to launch a new product or service.
In addition, the couple also received a letter from Vaughan Gethin, the Minister for Economy in the Welsh Government, congratulating them on their achievement.
The Wales region awards for 2022 were hosted in Cardiff and coincided with the couple’s anniversary.
