North East blogger awards launched

The region’s first ever awards to recognise its growing band of bloggers has launched this week.

The event this autumn will see bloggers from across the region come together in an evening that celebrates the region’s best blogs across 11 different categories including, food, sports, beauty, lifestyle, parenting, business, style, travel, student, best newcomer and will culminate in a special judges’ award for the North East Blogger of the Year.

People are being urged to nominate their favourite blog and bloggers can even nominate themselves at www.nebloggerawards.co.uk

The North East Blogger Awards is for blogs based in the North East of England and is the brainchild of creative communications agency O PR. Managing director Kari Owers said: “The bloggersphere is getting bigger and better in the North East so we felt it was time to celebrate our best bloggers; give them some recognition and something to celebrate.

“The evening will be a fun packed evening of inspiration, networking and a celebration of the region’s best bloggers.

“It’s easy to nominate a blogger you know or to nominate yourself if you’re a local blogger or business that blogs. Just log onto the North East Blogger Awards website, pick a category and fill in your reason for nominating. We are also using the hashtag #nebloggerawards on social media to help us spread the word.”

Entries close on Friday 19 September and the shortlist will be announced on 30 September.

Anyone interested in sponsoring a category can contact the NE Blogger Awards events team on nebloggerawards@opr.co.uk for an information pack.
