Meet The Judges
The Plymouth Armed Forces Awards have been incredibly fortunate to have such a great panel of judges, who have taken time out of their own busy schedules to be a part of this inaugural event and judge the vast amount of nominations received for the 2020 Awards.
​
Our judges come from a multitude of different backgrounds including local business owners, current and former armed forces personnel and true advocates of Plymouth's Armed Forces Community.
