**Entries to the 2009 National Lottery Awards are now open. Now in their sixth year,
the Awards aim to find “the UK’s favourite Lottery-funded projects”.**

All Lottery-funded projects, large or small, can be nominated by the public or can
enter themselves. There are seven categories, each reflecting an area of Lottery
funding: Sport, Heritage, Arts, Environment, Voluntary/Charity, Health and Education.

Since The National Lottery began nearly 15 years ago, over £22 billion has been 
granted to projects across the UK.

The finalists will be featured on a prime-time BBC1 TV show later this year, and
the winner will receive a £2,000 cash prize.

Entries must be received by 5pm on 13 March 2009.
