The awards were started by Timothy and Katie Rogers, a husband and wife from Telford.

They say the awards evening on Thursday is just one of many projects for their not-for-profit community interest company CultureTainment which seeks to make big improvements to infrastructure and opportunities for artists of many disciplines throughout the county and beyond.

Awards will be given in a host of categories for not only artists and their work but also best producer, venue and music shop.

The CIC provides artist support, mentoring, training, community workshops, events, and networking opportunities, with a vision to provide these services for free where possible to the whole community by subsidising through grants, donations, events and merchandise.
