The decision has been made by the HWPA that the 2020 Derby Awards will not be staged as a physical event.

The current situation and uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 has made it impossible to plan with any clarity and the Committee were not prepared to make financial commitments given that uncertainty.

The Derby Awards are a massive financial commitment for an organisation the size of the HWPA.

Options to still hand out the awards are being considered and the committee will update members when a decision is made.   L�9-F�@
