The Society of Editors has announced it is to stage the Regional Press Awards again next year following its successful revival of the event last May.
Full details of the 2012 event will be announced in January but the date of the awards ceremony has already been set for 25 May in London.
The Newspaper Society, Press Association and HoldtheFrontPage will again be supporting the event and other sponsors will be unveiled in the New Year.
The SoE revived the awards last year after a two-year gap.
Instead of the usual nonsense, wouldn’t it make sense to give an award for any newspaper which has bucked the trends in terms of circulation … then give the editor 10 minutes to tell everyone else in the room how to do it.
