The GlaxoSmithKline IMPACT Awards are open for entries. Funded by GlaxoSmithKline
and managed in partnership with The King’s Fund, they are designed to recognise 
and reward charities that are doing excellent work to improve people’s health.

An overall winner will receive £35,000, nine other winners receive £25,000, and 
up to ten organisations that are highly commended or runners-up will receive £5,000
or £3,000.

The awards are open to registered charities that are at least three years old, working
in a health-related field in the UK, with a total annual income between £10,000 
and £1 million.

Unlike other grants and awards, you do not need to present a new project. The awards
are designed to recognise success and achievements for existing work.

The deadline for applications for the 2010 awards is 5pm on 25 September 2009.
