BENEFITS OF WINNING A BCO AWARD:

PRESS
Media coverage cannot be guaranteed but each year the BCO team send out post-event press releases listing our regional and national winners. In previous years coverage has appeared in Estates Gazette, Building Design, AJ, Construction News, The Guardian, and The Times.
ONLINE PRESENCE
All regional and national winners are promoted in the Awards section of www.bco.org.uk. As winner of our awards your project will be featured in our email newsletters and remain on our website as part of an ever growing library of previous winners.
A SHINING TROPHY & AWARD WINNERS' LOGO
Share the news of your success by displaying the eye-catching BCO trophy and certificate, which each winning project receives, in your reception area. Winners are also provided with a logo which can be used to promote your success in print and online.
TAKE A TOUR
The BCO invite all winners to open their doors for a tour so that our members, and guests, can take a look around, hear about the successes of the project and meet the team. An excellent opportunity for informal networking and business development.
