Ben Smith, founder of PRmoment, said: “Congratulations to all those shortlisted for the 2018 PRmoment Awards – I know everyone always says this but just being shortlisted is a tremendous achievement.

“We had a record number of entries this year so the standard really impressive – the creativity of the UK PR sector is something we should all be really proud of. I look forward to finding out who wins in London on March 22 and in Manchester on April 26.”
