Who should attend this Awards Panel?
Membership is open to anyone living or working (including volunteering) in Greater Bedminster. Although people who have put bids in are welcome (you won’t be allowed to vote on your bid), we also need a good turnout of ‘uncommitted’ locals. You do not need any special qualifications other than an open mind. You will need to read through the applications, so let me know (in good time) if this poses a problem for you and we’ll see what we can do.
We welcome people who have served on the Awards Panel previously, but we’d also like to see some new faces. Please help out if you can.
