Nominations are open for the 2025 Netherthorpe Communicator of the Year Award – the Guild’s most prestigious accolade which recognises members who have made an outstanding and sustained contribution to agricultural communications.
The Netherthorpe is the only Guild award for which there are no self-entries: it is judged solely on nominations made by fellow Guild members.
Judges are looking for someone working as a journalist or in commercial communications who has contributed to the dissemination of knowledge and understanding about agriculture in its widest sense over a number of years.
This could be through the written word as a journalist, editor or PR professional, or through the scripting, production or presentation of radio and television broadcasts.
The recipient of the Netherthorpe Award will be presented honoured at the Guild Harvest Lunch in London on October 9, 2025.
To nominate a member for the 2025 Netherthorpe Award, please supply the following information:
- The person you wish to nominate
- Your name
- Your reasons for this nomination
Please send your nomination by Monday 8 September 2025 to BGAJ awards secretary Mike Abram at abramcommunications@gmail.com
