The Branford Boase Award is a literary award rewarded annually to an outstanding novel of a first time writer. Wendy Boase, Editorial Director of Walker Books and Henrietta Branford worked together previously to produce a great number of books. Both Wendy Boase and Henrietta Branford died in 1999 of cancer. The Branford Boase award was created to celebrate and commemorate their names and memories and to encourage new talent in writing which they worked for during their lives. The awards were a joint idea by Julia Eccleshare and Anne Marley who both had jobs do with books. The Branford Boase Award runs along side the Henrietta Branford Writing Competition for under 18s.
