Plain English Campaign 2014 awards coverage
Here’s some of the media coverage of our 2014 awards. Unsurprisingly, Russell Brand seems to be the focal point for most of it. However, our ‘good’ award recipients get their deserved mention in each piece.
Coverage in the Daily Mail, the Telegraph, the Edinburgh Evening News, the Belfast Telegraph, STV News and the Hartlepool Mail.
