This year's Excellence Awards are your opportunity to showcase the brilliant PR work your organisation or agency has undertaken during what has to be one of the most challenging times of our careers. Take the time to celebrate your team's work and be recognised for the quality and importance of what you do by the world’s only Chartered PR institute. I look forward to hearing about, and later raising a glass to, all the fabulous examples of your work over the past year.
