We’re delighted to say that Scotland Outdoors, the magazine we design for Big Bend Publishing won the award for Best Magazine From a Small Publisher at the PPA Scotland awards in Glasgow on Wednesday night for the second year running.

The team at Big Bend really do put heart and soul into this title and we’re absolutely delighted their efforts have been recognised – although sad that they couldn’t make it to the awards ceremony in person. Instead, Matt got the honour of rubbing shoulders with the event host, comedian Craig Hill!

Last night the team from CMYK were celebrating in style after winning Member Magazine of the Year at the PPA Scotland Awards 2009.

Scotland in Trust, which we publish on behalf of the National Trust for Scotland, beat off the competition to win the award for the third time in six years.

Needless to say we allowed ourselves a glass or two of champagne.

The prizes just kept coming though – another of our clients, Big Bend Publishing won Best Small Publisher with Scotland Outdoors magazine – which has been going for just over a year. CMYK do all the design and production work on the title.
