The Optician Awards have become an almost year-long process for the journal team. No sooner have the sponsors been found, entries open, judging done, evening organised, follow up features written than it all starts again.This year we also squeezed in a sponsors' lunch to discuss ideas for food, venue, entertainment ( this year we had a Strictly dance competition) presenters etc.
In the end it was decided that the format was pretty much perfect but internally it was decided that a look for the Awards wouldn't go amiss. Watch this space.
