History[edit]
The London Lifestyle Awards were created in 2010 by Jason Gale.[4] The mission was to honour those whose work has been understood as making a noticeable contribution to the London lifestyle scene and improving the lives of fellow Londoners. Jason Gale was inspired after a meeting with President Bill Clinton when they talked about the virtues of the great city of London.
Over the ten years, the London lifestyle Awards have attracted over 2000,000 public votes across the categories now rewarding over 200 businesses and people. The London Lifestyle Awards are part of the British Lifestyle Awards® organisation.
Nomination process[edit]
Both businesses and the general public can nominate online on the London Lifestyle Awards® website. After submission each nomination is vetted for eligibility. After nominees have been determined, a panel of judges decide the short list ( from 2020 the TopTen) which are announced and celebrated at an event. The following day voting re-opens to the public, and those receiving the highest number of votes become finalists whom are invited to the London Lifestyle Awards' annual ceremony where the winners are announced.[5]
Venue[edit]
The venue changes regularly but is always central London based, for 2020 the Venue will be The Brewery 52 Chiswell St, London EC1Y 4SD and held on the 2nd November 2020
