The awards are open for anyone to nominate one or all the categories, with nominations to be sent into Pathfinder editor, Mal Robinson by Sunday February 21, 2021.

Editor, Mal Robinson added, “We have been inundated with stories of excellent work being done by our forces and so it made sense to celebrate these achievements in what are unprecedented times by holding these predominantly online awards. I hope to see as many nominations as possible!”

Partner and Head of Hugh James military team, Simon Ellis said, “We’re delighted to be working in Partnership with Pathfinder on this inspirational project. These awards will recognise the incredible service of those working in the Armed Forces and will give them the acknowledgement they deserve.

Through our work, advising and assisting military personnel with their legal issues, we’re continually reminded of their dedication and contribution to society and it’s fantastic to be able to recognise that commitment”.
