Winners of the 2022 Pride of Sudbury competition were announced at a *glittering* awards ceremony in Sudbury Town Hall last night!

As ever our judges had a tough time picking which entries would take home the prizes, as there was such diversity and something to commend with every one.

So round of applause to all who won, to all who entered, to all our sponsors for their generosity and to all those who helped make the event a success.

Without further ado ...
