We know that a common complaint from comms professionals is a lack of recognition for their work. The UnAwards18 is your chance to change that. In a big way.

Whether it’s a brilliant campaign, managing communications through a crisis, or just turning up every day of the year and being the best you can be, it’s not a lot to ask to get the odd ‘well done’ or ‘thank you’.
But it doesn’t happen often enough for many and that is one of the reasons behind the comms2point UnAwards18 - to shine a light on the professionals proudly flying comms, pr and digital flags across the sectors.
Now there’s only one thing better than being shortlisted for an award - that’s being nominated by someone else for an award. It’s a special thing. It means you’ve caught someone’s eye, demanded their attention or impressed them with your creativity, doggedness, enthusiasm and skills.
Know someone like that? Then why not nominate them in the UnAwards18?
There are two ways in which you can nominate.
Option one - If you think an individual or a team should be in the running this year just complete this short online form and hit submit. I’ll do the rest and contact them on your behalf.
Option 2 - you can nominate an individual or a team in any of this year's categories and complete the entry form for them. Two which really lend themselves to nominations are:
- Best comms/digital team
- Lifetime achievement award
For this second option, all you need to do is complete the simple entry form here and email it through to admin@comms2point0unawards.co.uk
When we set up the UnAwards we were absolutely clear that they would be the most accessible industry awards around. Where the community were actively involved in shaping and deciding.
So, best of all you, the comms community, gets to choose the winners through a public vote in these two categories, as well as our 'Post of the year' category.
We’ll tell you more about the public vote soon.
HOW LONG HAVE I GOT TO NOMINATE SOMEONE?
The closing date is 25 October (midnight) so get nominating.
BE THERE ON THE DAY…
Want to soak up the atmosphere of the coolest comms, PR, marketing and digital event of the year in person? UnAwards tickets are priced at just £20 + vat each. See, we told you the UnAwards were really accessible.
Tickets are available on a first come, first served basis and will sell out so don’t hang around. You can grab yours here.
