Congratulations to all those companies shortlisted for The PRmoment Award 2019 - we had a record entry this year and the quality of campaigns that didn't make the shortlist was phenomenal! 

Congrats to all those of you who are shortlisted and we hope to see you at the Awards evening on March 13th at the Hilton Deansgate, Manchester where your peers will celebrate excellence in PR and communications. Commiserations to all those of you who were not shortlisted this year, it's the worst part of our jobs telling people they didn't quite make it. 

As you may know all companies who were shortlisted, and those who were not, will received quantitative data on how their entries performed in each of the judging criteria relative to the average criteria score in each category. This feedback will be sent after the PRmoment Awards on April 4th.
