Entries for this year’s National Lottery Awards must be submitted by today. The 
Awards will recognise the public’s favourite Lottery funded projects, and you can
enter your own project if you wish, as well as nominating that of another organisation.

The Awards “celebrate the amazing impact that Lottery funding has had around the
UK” and aim to highlight “some of the most inspiring people and projects” amongst
the 200,000 or so projects that have received Lottery funding.

Last year over 16,000 people voted for the national winners.

Online nominations and entries are straightforward and shouldn’t take more than 
10-15 minutes each.

There is no financial element to the award so don’t enter thinking you’ll get your
Lottery grant topped up. Still, the winner will receive national coverage, which
won’t harm their chances of securing funding from other sources.
