North-West Web Award Up For Grabs

Organisers have revealed the three digital journalists short-listed for an inaugural O2 Media Award for Cheshire and Merseyside.

They are: Tony Clixby and Rebecca Edwards from the Chester Chronicle and David Chana from the Warrington Guardian.

Picking the winning digital journalist from the group will be the judging panel comprising Manchester Evening News editor Paul Horrocks, Greater Manchester Weekly Newspapers editorial director Richard Catlow, and Bolton News editor Ian Savage.

A spokesman for the event told holdthefrontpage.co.uk that O2 is considering rolling out the contest to the rest of the country as the north-west one has proved so popular.

Winners will be announced tomorrow (Thursday, April 10) at a presentation evening in Cheshire.
