Watch this space! We hope to have news about the next Awards soon
We made the difficult decision to postpone the Awards in 2020 because of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on many individuals and organisations.
We’ve loved the wonderful examples of plain English that we’ve seen in New Zealand and overseas during the pandemic. This heightened interest in clear communication gives us an extra incentive to get back up and running when the time’s right. More coming soon!
Are the Awards still making a difference?
