Back in March, we were delighted to tell you about the launch of our new volunteer Impact Awards. These replace our Shining Star programme and will spotlight how the invaluable contribution of our volunteers creates impact in all areas of our work.
If you missed it, here’s what we said.
We received over 30 nominations in the last three months, which is a great reflection on our growing culture of recognition – but there’s always room for more!
Hold the date to celebrate
On Wednesday 5 October we’ll be showcasing volunteer impact and recognising outstanding individual contributions in an online award ceremony. This will be streamed live in the early evening, for everyone to watch. It’ll be a wonderful celebration of volunteering, with celebrities involved, and we’re very excited about it. We’re still finalising details, so look out for an announcement on our social media channels, and in future emails – and please hold the date.
Anyone who’s nominated for an Impact Award by Friday 26 August (along with Shining Star winners from the past two years) could be recognised at this event. So, get your nominations in as soon as you can. You can find all the information about how to do this here. Or you can contact [email protected] with any questions.
