Going above & beyond: Specialist Category Awards finalists revealed for 2011/12
TweetAfter careful review and consideration we are pleased to announce the finalists for this year's Specialist Category Awards.
This year has seen a high number of entries in each category, all of which were to a very high standard. In each category entrants were asked to demonstrate how their organisation has exceeded normal expectations or gone further than the call of duty using projects that have been implemented over the last 12 months.
Many thanks to every organisation that took the time to enter. Further assessment will take place throughout January and the winners for each category will be announced at the Midlands Excellence Awards Ceremony 2011/12 taking place on March 8th 2012.
