EXCITING NEWS – guess who’s been shortlisted (again) for another national award? Yep, it’s us! The BV is a finalist for Regional News Website of The Year at the prestigious Press Gazette’s Future of Media Awards!
We’re blushing a bit here – this is the third time this year we’ve been on the national stage. We might have to build a bigger trophy cabinet (just kidding, we’ve only actually won one. So far … ).
These awards celebrate excellence in digital news media – the judges were looking for technical excellence, evidence of both audience and commercial success and naturally for editorial brilliance. To be recognised among the best in the industry is always an honour. To find ourselves on a nationally-respected shortlist three times in one year is mildly bonkers.
We couldn’t have done it without the genuinely amazing BV team – and our fantastic readers.
Thank you for your support: here’s to more great stories ahead!
(and congrats to our fellow shortlistees – SoGlos and KentOnline. You can see more details of the awards here https://pressgazette.co.uk/…/future-of-media-awards…/ )
