Now in their fifth year, the Public Service Communications Excellence Awards were jointly developed by the leading public service communications professions – Government Communication Service (GCS) and LG communications – to celebrate excellence in public service communications campaigns.

The Awards are free to enter and open to all public service communications professionals working in central and local government, health, emergency services and wider organisations.

A panel of senior public service communications professionals assess entries against the Government Communications Service OASIS (Objectives, Audience insight, Strategy, Implementation, Scoring evaluation and outcomes) campaign planning model

The 2018 Public Service Excellence Awards were held on 9 October at the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery. Congratulations to HMRC, who won the Platinum Award with Self Assessment 2018. A full list of winners can be found here.
