Thanet Community Champions Awards – Nominations invited
Thanet District Council and Social Enterprise Kent (SEK) are proud to announce the launch of the Thanet Community Champions Awards 2025.
The awards will celebrate the incredible work of local individuals and organisations dedicated to improving life in Thanet. Funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, these awards highlight the essential role played by the Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprise (VCSE) sector in enhancing the quality of life for residents across the district.
The Thanet Community Champions Awards aim to highlight and celebrate the people and organisations who go above and beyond in supporting their communities, whether they are volunteers, charity workers, youth leaders, or the unsung heroes quietly making a significant impact. Nominations are now open, and the council is calling on residents, local businesses and VCSE organisations to help recognise the extraordinary efforts of our community champions.
Nominations are open until Tuesday 31 December 2024, and the awards will culminate in a special event on Wednesday 12 March 2025. The event will also include networking opportunities for members of the VCSE sector, allowing them to build relationships, share best practice, and foster collaboration for an even greater community impact.
