Terms and Conditions
1. The awards are open to individuals, partnerships, organisations and businesses based in or having a significant presence in the wider Eastbourne area.
2. Entry is by authorised entry form only. The form itself provides for identifying information only. Entrants are required to submit whatever statements, testimonials and records they wish for the relevant category. The judges reserve the right to seek more information or clarification of submissions. All entries must be received digitally.
3. Contenders may enter themselves or be nominated by a third party. If a contender is nominated by someone outside the business then the business will be invited to submit an entry in accordance to the rules and criteria of the awards. The only category exempt from this is Overall Business.
4. No responsibility will be accepted by the competition organisers for any material sent or any entry lost or delayed.
5. Entries will be judged by a panel appointed by the awards organiser Eastbourne Chamber of Commerce and will include representatives of the main sponsor, or category sponsors.

9. Sponsors are not able to enter any category.
