Together Mutual Insurance is inviting people to help their community win £25,000 by nominating volunteers for its Britain Has Spirit awards.

The awards recognise groups and individuals that give their time to help their communities with two categories: Community Group of the Year, and Community Hero of the Year.

The deadline for entries is 26^th February.

All nominations will be entered for one of 12 regional finals, each with a chance to win £1,000 towards a street party for all group heroes, or a fun experience day for the individual heroes. Winners of the regional finals will be entered for the grand final with the chance to win one of two £25,000 prizes to put towards local initiatives in their area.

The awards are fronted by Gabby Logan, who said:

“Britain Has Spirit has launched to try and re-evoke a sense of community pride, and to honour those who are tirelessly giving their time and effort to make communities and neighbourhoods better, all year round.”
