Vote for The Big Issue for Cover Of The Year!

Once again The Big Issue has been shortlisted for Cover Of The Year for our call for change!

Off the back of our winter success at PPA Scotland’s annual award ceremony, The Big Issue has once again made the shortlist for PPA’s Cover Of The Year.

Our Activist Army cover has been chosen as one of the 10 best magazine covers in Britain in 2017.

The Big Issue no 1254

In May 2017, we called on the people to vote for change and join our #ActivistArmy with this front cover.

Once again we ask you to vote, but this time to help us bag the coveted Cover Of The Year award once again.

Editor Paul McNamee is calling on Big Issue supporters to cast their vote.

“And now, it’s over to you, your friends, your family, the bloke you nod hello to when you’re walking the dog in the morning. We need votes. Lots of them. Vote once a day, from any machine. Vote from others devices. Vote, vote then VOTE AGAIN!”

The news comes as Big Issue publishing MD Russell Blackman has also been shortlisted as Team Leader Of The Year at the awards, taking place in London on June 27.

Head here to cast your vote.

You can vote once a day on as many devices as you like.
