Assessment and recognition

How entries are assessed

The relevant judging group uses the organiser's published category criteria.

Recognition and permitted use

Finalists or winners may use the relevant title, certificate and communications materials under the organiser's permission.

Official sources and verification

This is an independently maintained reference record. The organiser’s current rules govern eligibility, deadlines, charges and the award decision. The review date describes source verification, not a new publication of organiser rules.
