HOW SHOULD BUDGET INFORMATION BE PROVIDED?
Judges prefer to see real numbers in relation to budget and results, however percentage figures will be accepted.
We understand that sharing full budget information may not always be feasible due to client confidentiality however we can share a confidentiality document if needed, please email awards@dontpanicprojects.com for this document.
If you cannot provide exact figures you can use budget brackets for example ‘Up to 20K’ or ‘20K to 50K’ as an alternative. For judges, this approach is preferred to percentage submissions as it helps make a more accurate assessment.
