NOMINATIONS FOR MIDLANDS MEDIA AWARDS
Entries from Birmingham City University and the University of Warwick dominate the nominations for this year’s Midlands Media Students’ Awards.
Organised by Birmingham Press Club, and sponsored by Amazon Services UK Ltd, the Awards are being held on 8 November at Hockley Social Club, Birmingham, a former 10,000 sq ft print factory which has been transformed by the award-winning Digbeth Dining Club into a vibrant meeting place and street food venue.
ITV Central’s Lewis Warner and Amber Sandhu (pictured) from BBC Asian Network will act as co-hosts.
Press Club chairman Llewela Bailey said: “We are all looking forward to the return of the Awards – the first we have been able to organise since the start of the Covid outbreak. As ever, the quality of the work submitted by media students from both the East and West Midlands has proven to be both outstanding and inspiring.”
Tickets for the Awards, which acknowledge the achievements of the region’s next-generation of journalists, broadcasters and photographers, are priced at £45 (inc VAT) each, to include a meal voucher and a drink. To book, please email Press Club director Peter Brookes at peter@brookesmedia.com
Providing some of the street food on offer will be Birmingham-born Dan Lee, who two years ago won the prestigious title of MasterChef: The Professionals.
