Muddy Stilettos Awards: Vote for your favourite Andover business

Now in its ninth year, The Muddy Stilettos Awards in association with Healthily and local sponsor Wightlink Isle of Wight Ferries are back with a bang.

This year’s Muddy Stilettos Awards are back and the finalists have been announced, with several businesses in Andover and the surrounding area in the finals and a total of 135 businesses in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight chosen by their customers.

More than 500,000 people nominated more than 75,000 businesses in the first round of the awards across 27 lifestyle categories and only the top five with the most votes in each category in each county have made it into the finals.
