A COUPLE from Weymouth are celebrating after being presented with sales awards.

Gail and Brian Reynolds learned the news when they attended a glittering ceremony in Birmingham organised by cosmetics giant Avon.

Senior executive sales leader Gail received recognition for achieving the biggest sales growth in her team.

Gail and Brian, who have three children, were also recognised as being in the top sales team overall.

They scooped a host of prizes including a holiday and office equipment.

Gail, who started working for Avon in 2002 and recruited her husband two years' later, said: "I am delighted that all our hard work has paid off.

"I love working with my husband - together we have built up such a big business.

"This award has spurred us on to start setting ourselves even bigger and better targets for next year."

The awards were presented at an event called Live Your Dream organised by Avon to recognise the achievements of its sales leaders.

The company is celebrating a six per cent increase in revenue for the second quarter of the year.
