Website of the Year 2018

Judge, Whitney Bromberg Hawkings, CEO and co-founder of FLOWERBX, said: “Great British Chefs is a site I find myself getting lost in for hours. It is informative, with clever and engaging editorial content and insight on the food industry.”
App of the Year 2018
Touchnote is the multi-award-winning mobile and desktop app that turns your pictures into gorgeous postcards and gifts, in very simple steps.
On presenting the Award, Aron Gelbard, co-founder of Bloom & Wild said: "Touchnote is such a user friendly app that fulfils a real need of staying in touch, capturing and sharing memories, and being genuinely global in its offering. It's also an example of an app that genuinely should be an app rather than a website because of its use of native mobile features."
