We have had a fantastic set of proposals this year, many thanks again to everyone who submitted. The standard has been extremely high and you have given us a lot of food for thought and some very difficult decisions!

So after much debate and deliberation we are now at the sharp end of the process and after dotting a few i’s and crossing a couple of t’s in over the weekend we will be letting everyone know the outcome on Monday.

Particular thanks to Sandra Martins, our artist liaison officer who has been doing such sterling work behind the scenes. Have a lovely weekend everyone and fingers crossed for Monday…
