London Mums, this is your chance to win a Product of the Year goodie bag worth £180, the best gift bag I have ever seen!
I love attending the Product of the Year Awards every year. Having a background in Marketing, I enjoy the whole process of testing and branding new products. Plus being a mum helps my knowledge of a wide range of products from baby, children, family, food, beauty, fashion. Every year new parenting categories are added to the mix and the 2017 goodie bag reflects that. The selection process behind the glam Awards is very democratic as more than 10,000 consumers determined the winners, making Product of the Year the world’s largest consumer-voted annual award for product innovation. We only have one to give away! Good luck!
For your chance to win this amazing Product of the Year goodie bag worth £180, you need to write in the competition form below this post the name of the comedian who presented the event and the politician he was impersonating the most during the evening. A video of the evening is below to help you. The deadline to enter is midnight on 7th March 2017. The competition is open to UK entrants only.
Here is a my personal recount of the glamorous evening.
Product of the Year Awards 2017 have been the best to date for many reasons: the products were more family-focused than ever and I loved that, the entertainment exceptional with Rory Bremner clearly capitalising on the worst politicians the world has ever seen – his Trump impersonation was epic – the voice of Saara Alto (runner up at X-Factor 2016), a great dinner at the elegant Sheraton Grand hotel in London, and a very luxurious goody bag as a final perk at the end of an already special night.
There’s no doubt about the power of mums as big spenders as well as decision makers in UK households judging from the amount of winning products aimed at the family. That’s why mums are once more at the core of the selection process for the products nominated for the prestigious Product of the Year Awards 2017. And that’s why for the last six years my friend and mummy blogger Mirka Moore and I have been part of the judging team involved in selecting the products that are put forward to the public for voting.

The Venue
The awards ceremony at the luxurious and sumptuous Sheraton Grand hotel in the heart of London’s Mayfair.
The Entertainment
The timing of this event proved spot on. Less than a day before the new American President’s inauguration, the host for the evening, Rory Bremner, brought more than a taste of Donald Trump to the occasion. That helped the hashtag #ProductoftheYear to trending on Twitter at number two, hijacking the political build-up in America. Hurrah!
You can watch the full video of Rory Bremner’s brilliant show at Product of the Year Awards 2016 here on the London Mums YouTube channel.

As the buzz of the awards came to a close, Saara Aalto, runner up on The X Factor, took to the stage, ending the evening on powerful note.
