competition and has found himself short listed for an award at the
PPC 2009 Annual Awards, to be held Wednesday, 17 February,2010, in

trade and consumer media, to highlight the publicists responsible
for the best PR campaigns of the previous year, in order to help the
industry keep up standards. This year, Pritchards Manager, Tony
Higginson, was pleasantly shocked to find himself nominated, and
even more surprised to learn that he had been short listed for the
'PPC Events Manager of the Year 2009' award. Also up
for the award are:-

RSA Ladies - Mairi and Alex

The manager of the Brows Lane shop, said:- "I was so pleased
to find out. This is a major award for our industry. With me being
in a small shop in the backwaters of Formby, I would not have
thought I would have been nominated, yet alone short listed. I am so
pleased."
We will keep our readers informed as to how he gets on as soon as we
find out! Good luck Tony!
