October
2007 - Award for Wivenhoe News
We are
pleased to report that Wivenhoe News was short-listed for
the final round of the Essex Life Community Magazine Awards 2007. There
had been almost 90 entries from all over the county – the largest number
ever for this competition. And
so we joined a prestigious short list of 13 finalists at the Awards
Evening on 3rd October at Le Talbooth restaurant in
Dedham
.
After the
opening speeches by the Executive Director of the Rural Community Council
of Essex and by the other sponsors, came the awards themselves – three
Merit Award winners, a "Best Less Than Monthly Magazine", a
"Best Monthly or More Magazine" and an overall winner.
Of the
six award-winners, Wivenhoe News
was delighted to receive a Merit Award.
Our near neighbour, the St
Osyth News, was declared winner of the "Best Monthly" and
the overall winner of the competition was the Theydon
Bois Village News.
