Quick Tips

  • Use your spell checker. Judges are not impressed by bad spelling and grammar
  • Type your entry. Handwritten entries will not be accepted
  • Be succinct – go for bullet points
  • Don’t exceed the word limit set for each form
  • Don’t fake the figures – you’ll get caught and we will take your award away from you if we find out.
  • Answer ALL the questions – incomplete entries will be rejected
  • Given the effort it takes to enter – make sure you have read our Terms and Conditions and Entry Guidelines to make sure your entry adheres to them. This will ensure your entry is not rejected.
  • Only send in an entry if you have your company’s authority to do so
  • A hurried entry will be a poor entry – do yourself justice and give it the time it needs to do it properly
  • Once you have sent in your entry/ries and any supporting material – it is ours – we won’t sent it back
