The BMF has been shortlisted for the following awards:
- Conference of the Year

TAF represents over 300 of the top trade bodies in the UK and the Awards are designed to recognise, reward and promote Best Practice amongst members.
The TAF Awards are supported by the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy who are longstanding members of the independent judging panel.
Commenting on the shortlist, Linda Cavender, TAF CEO, said: “The Awards offer TAF members an excellent opportunity to showcase their organisation, its expertise and recent achievements. I am always astounded at the quality of the entries and only the very best reach the shortlist. They provide a benchmark for running a successful organisation which focuses on members’ needs.”
BMF CEO, John Newcomb, added: “We were surprised and delighted to be shortlisted in five categories this year, which is certainly a record number for us and I suspect for any trade body. This is a remarkable achievement and one that reflects the quality of the work that the BMF team is undertaking to support our members.”
