The Northamptonshire Community Foundation 2022 awards
Community groups, charities and social enterprises from across the county are being thanked and celebrated for all their hard work with awards.
The awards return on Thursday, December 8, for the first time in three years.
Set to take place at the Royal and Derngate, more than 20 groups and individuals will be in the spotlight and up for awards.
Northamptonshire Community Foundation chief executive officer Rachel McGrath said: “Our awards evening is an opportunity to celebrate and recognise the amazing work of local charities and community groups across our county and say a heartfelt thank you to our generous donors and partners who make the good work taking place across Northamptonshire possible.
“Many of our nominees have been supporting our most vulnerable residents throughout the pandemic and now the cost-of-living crisis. Their work has never been so vital and it is important that they receive the recognition they deserve.”
Categories include best newcomer, trailblazer, brilliant group, the edge and a lifetime achievement award. The awards also includes the Lady Juliet Townsend Award for volunteering, the High Sheriff Initiative Fund Award and The Inspirational Women Annual Award, a category run in partnership with Avon.
