The Northern Silver Screen Awards are when we bring our members together to celebrate the good work that has been done across the north over the past 12 months.
Each year the evening takes place following the first day of our annual Northern Housing Summit, which this year is taking place in Manchester for the first time.
The awards, which are now in their eighth year, sees shortlisted projects filmed and subsequently broadcast in front of a pack auditorium. Winners of each category are then announced on the night after being judged by an independent panel.
Entries for this year are now closed.
