Businessman honoured for work
Royston Bayfield
AN OPTICAL entrepreneur from Leeds has taken an award honouring small and medium-sized businesses.
Royston Bayfield, managing director of Bayfields Opticians, pictured, has been awarded the ActionCOACH prize, beating 300 other companies.
Mr Bayfield has practices on Yeadon High Street, Otley Road in Headingley and on Leeds University’s campus, employing 23 staff.
He said: “ActionCOACH was started by Australian millionaire Brad Sugars and is one of the most respected business brands in the world so to take the UK title is absolutely fantastic.
“There’s no doubt that our Glasses to Africa initiative impressed the judges after they learned how we’d sent hundreds of pounds worth of new spectacles to the Third World as part of a major promotion.”
