1. On 7 March 2024, AWARD LEISURE LTD (which traded as Award Leisure, via awardleisure.com and awardleisure.co.uk and appearing on social media using @awardlesiure_ and _awardleisure_ ) and whose registered office was situated at Spa House, Watling Street, Gendon, Atherstone, Warwickshire CV9 2PZ (“the Company") entered creditors’ voluntary liquidation. On 22 March 2024 it was renamed AWL REALISATIONS LIMITED.

2. I, MARK CHRISTOPHER ANTHONY, of 111 Leicester Road, Hinckley, Leicestershire LE10 1LR was a director of the Company during the 12 months ending with the date it entered liquidation.

3. I give notice that it is my intention to act in all or any one or more of the ways specified in section 216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986 in connection with, or for the purposes of the carrying on of the whole or substantially the whole of the business of the insolvent company under the following name or parts of names:

Award Leisure, awardleisure.com, awardleisure.co.uk, @awardlesiure_ and _awardleisure_

or any name, trading style, logo, website address, X (formerly Twitter), Instagram or other social media identity, containing the words/letters “Award” and/or “Leisure” (whether in upper or lower case or any combination hereof).

4. I would not otherwise be permitted to act in all or any of the ways specified in Section 216(3) of the Act in connection with, or for the purposes of, the carrying on of the whole or substantially the whole of the business of the Company under the prohibited name without leave of the court or the application of an exception created by the IR 2016.

5. A breach of the prohibition created by Section 216 of the Act is a criminal offence.

6. “Section 216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986 lists the activities that a director of a company that has gone into insolvent liquidation may not undertake unless the court gives permission or there is an exception in the Insolvency Rules made under the Insolvency Act 1986 (This includes the exceptions in Part 22 of the Insolvency (England & Wales) Rules 2016.) These activities are-

(a) acting as a director of another company that is known by a name which is either the same as a name used by the company in insolvent liquidation in the 12 months before it entered liquidation or is so similar as to suggest an association with that company;

(b) directly or indirectly being concerned or taking part in the promotion, formation or management of any such company; or

(c) directly or indirectly being concerned in the carrying on of a business otherwise than through a company under a name of the kind mentioned in (a) above.

7. This notice is given under Rule 22.4 of the Insolvency (England & Wales) Rules 2016 where the business of a company which is in, or may go into, insolvency liquidation is, or is to be, carried on otherwise than by the company in liquidation with the involvement of a director of that company and under the same or a similar name to that of that company.

9. The purpose of giving this notice is to permit the directors to act in these circumstances where the company enters (or has entered) insolvent liquidation without the directors committing a criminal offence and in case of the carrying on of the business through another company, being personally liable for that company's debts.

Notice may be given where the persons giving the notice are already directors of a company which proposes to adopt a prohibited name.”
