Groundwork Community Awards 2017 – do you know a local group that deserves recognition?
Do you know a community group that deserves special recognition for making your local area a better place to live? If so, nominate them to receive a Groundwork Community Award!
The Groundwork Community Awards honour the small groups making a big difference to the quality of life in their local area. They want to celebrate and reward groups who often get little recognition and support, putting the spotlight on the power of doing good together so that others can be inspired to organise and get active in their own communities.
