There is nothing to beat a dreary Monday morning to discover that My Local Electrician became a finalist in the UK Blog Awards!
This is thanks to our very generous readers and followers who took to their screens to kindly vote for us – each of your votes contributed to this momentous achievement and to each and every one of you who voted -THANK YOU- we wouldn't be here if it wasn't for your vote – every single one counted!
So what next?
Of course our commitment to promoting electrical safety will continue with increased gusto. It has always been our determination to bring electrical safety to the forefront of peoples minds whether they are a householder or an electrical industry professional who needs support to spread a very important message.
In 2008, we came out of nowhere (well we knew where we were I guess!) and started off as directory pages for electricians. We very soon became an on line magazine promoting exclusive industry news and promoting the electrical industry. Our blog has always been and always will be about promoting electrical safety and we are here to stay – for you, for electricians, for everyone.
Why on earth did we enter these awards anyway?
We never imagined to be finalists, but we thought we'd dip our toes in the water so to speak. For us though, it's about you, and what we can do to change the view on electrical safety. Every person who works in the electrical industry understands the need to educate the public about the dangers of electrical safety. As demonstrated by the public vote, we have a following of dedicated electrical industry professionals who back up our passion for electrical safety.
Being a finalist is for all of our supporters – together we are making a difference!
