A Lowestoft businesswoman has been honoured with an "amazing" award.

Ann-marie Doggett, of Magnus PR, has been running her business for just under five years.

But last week she collected her second business award at a prestigious ceremony where East Suffolk businesses were celebrated.

As a finalist at the East Suffolk Awards, run by East Suffolk Council, Ann-marie was honoured with the 'Encouraging Tourism Award' after being up against two companies.

To celebrate her latest award - after winning Entrepreneur of the year in 2019 when she was also a New Business finalist that year and was named one of East Anglia's most inspirational women - she has unveiled a series of "unique" new events.

Mrs Doggett said: "To be awarded and recognised again is amazing."

With Magnus PR organising the popular river party cruises from Oulton Broad, six new events are planned this summer - including Lowestoft’s very first Pride cruise, an 80’s cruise, 60’s & 70’s cruise, Hen Party cruise, Soul cruise and an Ibiza sunset cruise.

A brand new event for Oulton Broad has also been announced by Magnus PR - with the five star critically acclaimed 'Faulty Towers The Dining Experience' at Quayside Restaurant on Wednesday, May 31.

This two-hour interactive, immersive show comes straight from London’s West End via the legendary Sydney Opera House.

Officially the world’s most sought after tribute to the BBC sitcom, Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is "simply unmissable and outrageously funny".

Mrs Doggett added: "With Faulty Towers The Dining Experience guests become part of the action as Basil, Sybil and Manuel serve up mayhem on a plate alongside a three-course meal and two hours of non-stop laughter.

"Expect nothing short of guaranteed fun and a brilliant night out."

Tickets cost £63.99 per person and can be purchased online at www.magnuspresents.co.uk where tickets can also be booked for any of the cruises.
