Meet your Muddy Awards 2024 Finalists!

You’ve voted, we’ve counted (and counted, and counted) and the Herts & Beds Muddy Awards Regional Finals are now officially OPEN!

THANK YOU for taking the time to support your awesome local businesses - the response, as always, has been incredible. We wish every brilliant business nominated could make it through, but there can only be five Finalists in each category, and now the Muddy readers will vote for who should win the coveted Herts & Beds Award.

As an added bonus, all Regional winners across all 28 Muddy counties will be put forward for the ‘Best of the Best’ National Muddy Awards – even more reason to show your support this year!

The Regional Awards vote are now closed. Watch this space! Regional Winners will be announced 2nd May 2024.
