Reader of the Argus submitted nominations in the categories earlier in the year then Argus editor, Michael Beard and the awards sponsors selected their winner and two runners up who will received their awards on Sunday night.
Paul Kemp is one of the city’s most experienced club and event promoters. His association with Brighton Pride as supporter and operator goes back 20 years. He changed the face of clubbing in Brighton in 1989 with the ground breaking Club Shame and followed this in 1992 with one of the UK’s icon club nights Wild Fruit which is still running 21 year later. He delivered along with the Pride Team what has been acknowledged as the most successful, diverse and inclusive event ever staged in the city. Sadly that has not stopped the Green Administration on the City Council considering removal of its annual £25,000 grant in 2014.
Other nominees in the category Achiever of the Year include Save Exeter Street Hall Team and Sandy Austin.
