Jeremy Green, CEO of Creative Circle, comments: “The Creative Circle strives to celebrate, champion and nurture British creativity, and tonight was a night to celebrate the very best work that our fantastic creative industry has created over the course of the past year. Congratulations to each and every award winner. We must now go on to nurture those watching from the balconies and continue to raise the bar of creative excellence.”
