The fifth annual Wiltshire Life Awards were presented at a gala, black tie dinner at Wilton House, Wilton on Friday 19 March 2010.
The lifetime achievement award will be presented to the man or woman, currently living in Wiltshire, who has made the biggest contribution to the county during their lifetime. The judges will be looking for the most distinguished service or remarkable achievements displayed over a period of time.

This is a prestigious award for a professional or 'amateur' carer, whether he or she is a doctor, nurse, paramedic, residential care worker, social worker, friend or family member who cares for someone close to them.

There has been a slight change this year in that we are looking for a star business not a business person so if you know of or, indeed, are running a successful business that has a strong sense of identity, let us know.

This award can be won by a practising painter, craftsman/woman or musician who has made an outstanding contribution to the arts in the county. Evidence of success should be supplied with the entry.

The winner of this award will have shown great initiative in providing the best possible personal service and care for his/her village and who can demonstrate improved efficiency and or sales.
This award will be presented to the person who has produced the highest quality product whether it is meat, fish or dairy and who has developed strategies to market and sell his/her produce in the county and beyond.

Community groups that make a worthwhile difference to the lives of Hampshire residents are in the running for this prize. Working with the police to make the community a safer place or with schools or the elderly, the judges are looking for the group that is at the very heart of its community.
Which is the best restaurant or pub in the county? This award will go to the establishment, whether a hotel, restaurant or pub which, in the opinion of the judges, provides regularly the best range of food, atmosphere and service.

The Wiltshire Sports Person of the Year will be either a professional or amateur in any recognised sport who has made the most significant contribution to sport as a result of individual achievement or through personal contribution as a member of a team.

The Wiltshire Young Achiever of the Year award will be given to the person who has made the most outstanding contribution, in whatever field, and is aged 18 or under at the time of entries closing.
