The Big Issue needs you to back our ‘Grenfell Tower, one year on’ cover in the Cover of the Year category

The Big Issue is up for more silverware – and we need you to help us bag first prize.

Our haunting ‘Grenfell Tower, one year on’ cover is up for PPA Scottish Magazine Awards’ Cover of the Year 2018 gong.

You can vote once a day on as many devices as you like before November 30 so get friends, family and everyone you know to cast their vote here.

The Big Issue is also up for the top prize in the Consumer Magazine of the Year category, with judges putting us head to head with Beano, No1 Magazine, The Scots Magazine and Glasgow Live.

We also have two of our wonderful writers shortlisted in the Writer of the Year – Consumer Magazine category – Books Editor Jane Graham and TV Editor Adrian Lobb are both up for the award. See the full list of nominees here.
