Entries open for National Lottery Awards 2012
If you have received National Lottery funding for a project in the past year you can enter it for the National Lottery Awards, the annual celebration of the impact that Lottery funding is having on transforming communities.
It is a chance to secure national coverage for your project and the people involved. The entrants that make it to the finals will receive national recognition at an event, broadcast on BBC One, later this year. They will also have a chance to win a £2,000 cash prize.
The National Lottery Awards have seven categories, each reflecting an area of Lottery funding: Arts, Education, Environment, Health, Heritage, Sport and Voluntary/Charity.
Since the National Lottery began in 1994, over £27 billion has been invested in Good Causes across the UK. Each week ticket sales generate £30 million for good causes.
Entries must be received by 17.00 on 12 March 2012.
