Although Wilmington sold Press Gazette to Progressive Media in April last year it kept hold of the British Press Awards, which it is running this year after reaching a deal with the Newspaper Publishers Association and the Journalists’ Charity, which will get a share of the profits.
Although the Regional Press Awards are not nearly as lucrative as the BPAs they were a major event for Press Gazette and when launched by the magazine were the first awards aimed specifically at regional journalists throughout the UK.

Are the regional press awards being held this year? If so, where is there information on them? Can find nothing on line and the people at Wilmington seem to know nothing.
Dear Abbie,
My understanding is that no firm decision has been made yet. People are just considering a proposal for the awards.
