The Muddy Stilettos Awards are back – bigger, better and more important than ever. These are the UK’s most coveted awards for brilliant independent lifestyle businesses across England, Wales and Scotland (yes, hello two brand-new Muddy countries for 2026!). And we’re thrilled to have delilah as our Official Beauty Partner, adding a little extra glow to this year’s celebrations.

A nomination for your favourite local businesses means visibility, credibility, a big community thumbs-up - and takes just seconds.
