2018 has already proved a winner as our annual staff awards have had a tremendous response.

So big thanks to everyone. 

They were submitted in all areas for the Four Pillars, our "People" categories and for the two new categories for Digital Innovation and Rising Supertar.

Everyone who entered, as ever, will go into a draw for a wild card for the Big Night on December 5 at Huddersfield Town Hall. Without you caring so much and taking the time to enter, there'd be no competition after all so this is our way of saying thank-you.

So what's next?

All entries will now go out to our shortlisting team and by the end of September we will have the three finalists in each category who will present their work at our Market Place judging on October 19.

From there it's on to the Gala Night....fingers crossed and well see you there.
