The Pride of Jersey Awards were held in the marquee at Government House last Saturday with His Excellency and Lady Dalton attending.
About 250 people packed into the marquee for the ceremony which was once again hosted by Islanders former England footballer Graeme Le Saux and singer-song writer Nerina Pallot.
