Corsham-based social media and communications agency, Naturally Social, is celebrating this month after being named a finalist in two national awards.

The team will be travelling to London today (July 8) for the final of the UK Social Media Awards. Up for the Best Small Agency category, the evening will celebrate the very best social media campaigns and agencies from around the country.

Founder Natalie Sherman said: “At Naturally Social, we’re dedicated to working with individuals, organisations and businesses to help them make sense of social media and deliver results bespoke to their goals. To be recognised nationally, among some of the top social media companies in the country, is amazing and shows just how hard the team has worked during this difficult time.

“Hearing about being a finalist for one national award was terrific, but then to find out I’d been shortlisted for another one was just incredible! I set the company up by myself in 2015 to work with companies and organisations that put purpose before profit, and having that impact recognised is amazing. I hope this will inspire future female entrepreneurs to take the plunge and follow their dreams.”

Natalie has also been named as a finalist in the Service Industries Entrepreneur of the Year category at the 2021 Great British Entrepreneur Awards for the Southwest region. The results for the regional awards will be announced in September with the winners going on to the national final in November.

Founder of the Great British Entrepreneur Awards, Francesca James, added: “We have seen some incredible finalists over the years, and this year is no exception. It really is one of the strongest shortlists we’ve ever had, and the fact that so many exceptional people have applied during such a tough year is a testament to the resolve and entrepreneurial talent that exists across the UK.

“Creating the shortlist out of so many wonderful applications was incredibly tough, so I don’t envy the judges who will now decide the regional winners. Everyone who has been shortlisted should be incredibly proud and we’re thrilled to be able to showcase their achievements.”
