Well I'm a bit dissapointed now as I havent been nominated, especially as your mate has and he doesn't even work in H&S.

You should have asked them who nominated you. Just so as you can thank them personally :-)

Maybe the person who nominated you, is a nigerian princess

I got this yesterday perhaps its the same ???

Good afternoon Gerry

 I have recently emailed you to notify you that your company has received a nomination for the 2017 Health & Safety Awards hosted by CV Magazine.

 We have established the 2017 Health & Safety Awards to celebrate the companies and individuals whose dedication and hard-work is often overlooked.

 We will be casting a light on the remarkable firms and individuals whose inimitable ways and innovative thinking has seen them reach incomparable heights and gain remarkable accomplishments.

 Do let me know if you would like to part or not by choosing one of the below;

A.          -   ACCEPT MY NOMINATION

B.          -   DECLINE MY NOMINATION            

What is the process for the awards?

After agreeing to be shortlisted, we will begin our research stage. This consists of myself sending over a supporting evidence questionnaire with a couple of questions about you and/or the business mentioned.

This isn’t mandatory because we do understand that everyone is busy, so we do have an in-house research team to build a case file using internet searches for things such a customer reviews, articles and testimonials etc.

Once the case file is finalised, this then gets based to the judging panel (our board of directors with around 26 years of experience combined). They will then make the final decision and you will be notified via email if you have been successful. Winners a chosen based on merit alone rather than how many votes they have received. Winners will be contacted at the end of March and the official announcement and publishing of the magazine is due to take place in May.

Please note, there are no mandatory costs throughout the process, nor if you should go on to win.

I look forward to hearing from you!

With my best regards,

It went right to my spam folder which is basically where it belongs, its apparent this is just a rouse to get some advertising revenue in with the idea of doing a free writeup for you

Looking at their website it appears they do these sort of awards on a regular basis and not just in the UK http://www.corp-vis.com/2017-winners-directory-january

I received the same email....

Looks like a scam.

To stop receiving further emails of this nature please click HERE Opt out / unsubscribe requests might take two working days to complete. You might still receive further emails until this process has been completed. This email and any attachments to it may be confidential and are intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed. Any views or opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of AI Global Media Ltd.

The usual rule of thumb for these things is as a nominee they will do a free article on you and your company - provided of course you provide details (and in some cases help to contact) your supply chain, to encourage them to pay for adverts around your article. The suppliers advertising, the more prestige your article will (apparentyl) get.

And if your lucky you can convince them all to pay a handsome fee, along with yourselves, to attend the awards ceremony where the very best contenders (biggets payers) will get the prestige of winning and award from an obscure organisation no-ones heard of, which will impress absolutely no-one - but hey its a night out.

Or, am I just bitter coz I never got an email ;-)

Might of gone right to your Spam bin, mine did and i only looked for it when i saw this post.

In which case it would have found its own level; and there it shall remain. This from the companies website:

Of course, winning an award isn't much use unless your win comes with a chance to tell the world about your success, which is why, as with all of our awards, we offer a range of packages, designed to give every successful nominee the perfect platform from which to make the most of their win.
