Never fear!  We know how busy you all are, particularly at this time of year. That’s why we’ve released details of the 2010 Award Categories and Conditions of Entry a full week earlier than last year.

We’ve also extended the entry deadline by a further week to Wednesday 27th January 2010, which gives you almost 12 weeks to get your submissions together.

You’ll also notice that for those categories requiring a compilation of audio extracts from across the year, we’ve reduced the duration from 60 to 30 minutes. We hope this will make the entry process quicker and easier for you and help our judges to manage their listening time.

Please note that the broadcast date for Station of the Year categories is Wednesday 4th November 2009.  Make sure you save your output from this date if you are planning to enter one of Station of the Year Awards.
