• By utilising clear language, you have the ability to engage and honestly persuade the judges that your project is a winner
• Try to avoid unnecessary jargon
• Be original

 

• Ensure all cross-referenced information matches up, as our expert panel of judges will thoroughly check this. For instance, make sure your visual evidence doesn’t contradict the entry statement
• It is preferable to provide actual figures rather than percentages. If you do use percentages, make sure you provide the judges with a clear context of the audience and sector. This will allow the judges to understand and make better sense of your entry
• Stick to the word count to succinctly deliver your message. Our judges will have a large number of entries to read and evaluate

 

• If you are entering one project into multiple categories, make sure you adapt your entry to fit each category
• If you are submitting a long-term project, please be clear about which stage of the project you are entering. The project’s strategy must have been developed, launched or carried out between November 2022 and May 2024.
