Could it be you?

We’re excited to open nominations for the AOP Awards 2018. Practitioners and members of the public can now nominate across 12 categories – including our new category Health and Wellbeing Practice of the Year.

Commenting on the Award’s newest category AOP Chief Executive, Henrietta Alderman, said: “The Awards this year will recognise the importance of a positive working environment with the introduction of Health and Wellbeing Practice of the Year. The event has always looked to celebrate those organisations and individuals who promote wellness among their colleagues and we’re delighted that this new award will shine a spotlight on that important work.”

She continued, “The AOP Awards are about recognising practitioners who contribute so much to the public and profession – with 12 categories opening today do have a look and consider putting yourself forward or nominating a colleague.”

Taking place at 100% Optical 2018, the AOP Awards celebrates the highest level of achievement in UK optics. In addition to the 12 categories that are opening for nomination today will be the Lifetime Achievement Award, which is selected by an AOP judging panel, and two members’ choice awards; Product of the Year and Frame of the Year.
