There are some amazing people in banding who make great things happen.  Do you know someone who has been an inspiration to young people, or led imaginative projects, collaborations and community band events?  Or has your band carried out a successful project that deserves recognition? BBE is now extending the nomination closing date until midnight on 29 May to give you more time to make an award nomination and let these people and organisations know just how great you think they are. The categories for nominations are listed below:

·         Band Project of the Year Award (new award)

·         Social Impact Award

·         Innovation Award

·         Outstanding Contribution Award (over 18s and 18 and under)

·         Brian W Hicks Memorial Shield for Services to Youth

·         Lifetime Achievement Award

There is also a new Band Project of the Year Award this category; finalists for this category will go to a public vote, providing the banding community and its audiences with a chance to select their favourite project.

Nominations can be made online via the BBE website or by downloading the nomination form and returning by post or email.
