The Phoenix Business Club marked a night of success and celebration at their 2025 Awards at Park Regis, Birmingham. With over 180 professionals and business owners in attendance, the evening honoured the achievements of individuals and businesses making a real impact across the region.
Attendees enjoyed a welcome drinks reception and a delicious three-course meal, all against the backdrop of one of the best views in Birmingham. Hosted by Phil Oldershaw, guests celebrated 14 awards being handed to local talent in the region.
Kids’ Village was chosen as the charity partner for this year’s awards night. The local charity is working to create the UK’s first dedicated holiday village for children living with critical illnesses and their families.
Thanks to the generosity of guests, the event raised an incredible £2,670, including £1,820 through a raffle and £850 from a silent auction hosted by Superstars.
Supporting on the night were four student volunteers from BMet College, who kindly gave their time to help sell raffle tickets and raise vital funds for the cause.
Jamil Shabir, CEO, Phoenix Business Club said:
We set out to create a business community that gives back. The awards are about recognising real people doing real work and backing causes like Kids’ Village is part of that. We’re proud to support a charity that puts families first. Big thanks to everyone who donated, showed up, and made the night what it was.
Katrina Cooke, CEO of Kids’ Village said:
We are so grateful to the Phoenix Business Club for supporting Kids’ Village. Over the last 6 months, they have supported us at several of their events, helping us to get to bigger audiences and raise much-needed funds. Thank you to Jimmy, Tessa and all the members for backing us on our journey.
