It is with great pleasure that the Mayor of Winchester, Cllr Angela Clear, announces the launch of this year’s Community Awards.

The Awards recognise and celebrate the organisations and individuals who give outstanding service to the people and places of the Winchester District.

The aim of these awards is to celebrate the selfless activity that brightens the lives of many residents, and makes the District a wonderful place in which to live.

The Mayor invites your nominations, and seeks to ensure that the Awards reflect the full range of community activity from all corners of the Winchester District.

Who can be nominated?

As in previous years, the emphasis is firmly on voluntary action. However, there is also scope to pay tribute to those who routinely go above and beyond the call of duty in the course of their paid employment.

Nominees can be:

Any age.

Volunteering or working in any area of life, except causes that do not respect equalities legislation, or promote extremism or otherwise conflict with established Council policies and duties.

Nominees must:

Live in the Winchester District (or, in the case of organisations, deliver a substantial part of their services to residents of the District).

Give their permission to be nominated!

How to nominate:

Anyone can nominate an individual or an organisation, and self-nomination is permitted. The Mayor particularly seeks the assistance of Parish and Town Councils, City Councillors and others in public life who are well placed to see such work at first hand and throw a light on the – often unassuming – volunteers who do so much for our community.

There are three categories:

1 – Individual (Under 18)

2 – Individual (Adult – Over 18)

3 – Organisations
