Introducing the Penguin Awards

Every year I try and raise money for Martin House Children's Hospice by attempting half marathons in stupid costumes, I’m still doing that this year but before we chat about that, I want to announce a new fundraising event.

The Penguin Awards

• Are you a digital agency who has never won an award? We’ve got an award for that!
• Do you have the best office dog? We’ve got an award for that!
• Do people often remark that you look like Ed Sheeran who likes cake a bit too much? We’ve got an award for that!

The basics of the awards are simple

• ￡10 entry fee (which goes to charity)
• 15+ slightly amusing categories
• A job lot of trophies bought off eBay
• A livestreamed awards ceremony
• Good feelings all round.

Every penny raised goes to the Martin House Children's Hospice. That’s right, not every penny profit.. Every penny given to us will go to the charity and Little Warden is covering all additional costs (website, streaming, trophies, postage)

Trophies? You want a trophy.. We’ve got trophies.. We’ve bought the BEST trophies that a ‘trophy joblot’ search on eBay has to offer and if you win, you will be the proud owner of a preloved cheerleader trophy with your name engraved over it.

Head over to www.penguinawards.com and look at the categories and if you don’t feel like entering one then we have a special category just for you, it’s called the I really really want to win this award, award and you can bid for it now up until an hour before the ceremony starts.

I’d like to send by saying thank you to our category sponsors, Little Warden, Kerboo, Sitebulb, Accountancy Extra, Sanity Check, Clockwork Talent, Polemic Digital, 10 Yetis, Biddable Moments, Stat,SERPmetrics, Deepcrawl, Many Minds and we’ve still got a few categories left if you’d like to get involved.
