It’s certainly been a period of uncertainty, but the Prolific North Awards are a lynchpin of the region’s creative industries, and we’re proud to be able to make them a reality and provide support to the whole of the sector.
It means no black tie dress code or three-course meal, but the evening is set to be a special one nonetheless. Like ever, we’ll be proudly celebrating the success of our peers and their excellent work, and taking a look together at what the future of the industry looks like.
