The ceremony, which took place at the Spitfire Ground, St Lawrence, Canterbury, on Friday 12 July is a celebration of local journalism.
Organised by Kent-based PR and marketing agency, Maxim, the event was hosted by ITV’s Nina Hossain, an award-winning journalist with more than 20 years’ experience. An advocate of increased opportunities for budding journalists without the privilege of a prestigious education, Nina covered the London 2012 Olympics and has picked up three Royal Television Society Awards.
Maxim’s Rachel Knight said: “We had 149 entries this year, making it our most popular year to date, and that meant the most attendees ever. We’ve already had some great feedback on the ceremony itself and it’s great to know how much it means to people to win an award. As a not-for-profit scheme, we must say a huge thank you to the sponsors who make it all possible.”
In consultation with the judges, this year some changes were made to the 15 categories, to better reflect the work taking place in Kent’s newsrooms.
The Kent Press & Broadcast Awards entries are judged by an independent, expert panel consisting of: Susie Boniface, a national journalist known as Fleet Street Fox; PA photographer Gareth Fuller; digital consultant Patrick Fuller; Gillian Hargreaves, who spent 25 years with BBC news; journalist and lecturer Dr Sarah Lonsdale; sports journalist and lecturer Graham Jones; Rebecca Smith, former senior editor for Kent Regional News and Media; and Leo Whitlock, a local newspaper journalist for more than 20 years, much of which was spent at the KM Media Group.
