The overall winners have not been chosen yet. That happens in the next stage when all the judges get together.
The judges have so far studied more than 750 entries in the first stage (and each entry is made up of three copies, so that's a lot of reading). The winners will be announced at a lunchtime awards ceremony at London’s Park Plaza Riverbank on May 11 hosted by Nick Ferrari.
Tickets are £70 (plus vat) per person or £700 (plus vat) per table to include a pre-lunch drinks reception and wine with lunch. Special rates for overnight stays may be available. To book your place please contact kate.mcmillan@societyofeditors.org.
Don't forget this is a non-profit event, all proceeds going to the Journalists' Charity. So let's have your support and I'll see you on May 11. Good luck.
