A list of the best campaigns of the year is being released in the run up to the second annual Change Opinion Awards. The list, compiled by Westbourne Communications, recognises campaigns that have either brought an issue to light, or helped change public opinion surrounding a particular issue.

Westbourne founder James Bethell says, “At Westbourne we embrace change and challenge the status quo. Campaigning is not just about talking to politicians and getting articles in newspapers but about getting out on the streets, sometimes in the pouring rain, listening and talking to real people. The Westbourne 100 has been created to recognise those people and organisations who wouldn’t give up; who have fought and are still fighting to make a difference.”

A panel of independent judges will select the 'Best campaign of the year' winners from the top 100 list. The overall winners will be announced at a ceremony on May 15.

The list brings together a wide array of inspirational work; some campaigns are on an international or national scale, while some are local, and categories include; social cohesion, energy/climate change/environment, and infrastructure/transport. All have been successful in their own particular mission.
