This year's Excellence Awards was a powerful celebration of the talent that exists throughout the industry and the impact of their work, and is a testament to the value our profession delivers. That was never on display more than last year when, in the most challenging of circumstances, the PR community worked creatively and strategically to engage communities, support colleagues, and deliver for clients and organisations.

Many congratulations to all those who picked up an award at last night's ceremony and all those shortlisted.
