"Yet again this shortlist showcases the true range of talent in regional journalism.

Everyone on this list - whether up for an individual award or part of a team - should be proud of themselves.

It's brilliant to see local journalists continuing to make a real difference to the communities they cover, often facing tough opposition, and I'm delighted these awards continue to celebrate that.”

“Regional journalism is showing its best version of itself with the quality and range of entries who have made the shortlist.

What we do matters incredibly and from the evidence we have seen in these entries, the professionalism and high standard of journalism is still very much at the heart of what we do day-in day-out. Good luck to all those shortlisted and thank you to everyone who entered.”
