If you’re unfamiliar with them the UnAwards have become one of the largest industry awards in the UK. And I believe the most accessible for sure.

Now is not a time to quietly sit back and hope your boss recognises and appreciates your efforts. So, try and get yourself shortlisted for an UnAward to really put your work on the organisational map.

What are you most proud of from the last 12 months?

It could be a campaign, a social media account, a collaboration, an officer, your team, something you did on a shoestring or any other number of things.

There are 19 categories to choose from, including the all-new health and wellbeing category.

It's simple and £free to enter your work.

The closing date is 30 October – be warned, this date is never extended.

You’ll find more at the dedicated UnAwards website.

Finally, finally… a diary date for you

The big day is all booked for Friday 6 December at Birmingham’s lovely Everyman Cinema. It’s a brilliant end of year celebration and industry get-together. It sells out every year – tickets are just £20 + vat – and you’ll be able to get yours very soon right here.
