HantsWeb Awards: VentnorBlog Shortlisted!

HantsWeb AwardsReturning home from a very muddy, but excellent time away at Bestival (check out the live video at Bestival), we were met by a very exciting email from the HantsWeb Awards team.

As you will know dear reader, we were thrilled to be nominated for the awards last month and were really chuffed to hear that VentnorBlog is the only Island publication to be shortlisted as one of the ten Best Local Area Websites over the whole of Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. Yikes!

The finalists will be announced in mid-October, with the award ceremony taking place in November, so we’re keeping everything crossed (which makes it more than a little difficult to type) for a positive outcome.

Thanks again to everyone for your continued support and especially to those who nominated us.

Congratulations to the other organisations from the Island who also feature in the shortlists. We’ll endeavour to tell more about them on VentnorBlog over the coming days.
