Volunteers give so much to their community, and we’d like to say thank you!
Individual people can have such a positive impact on those around them. We want to celebrate those who consistently put others first.
Being Volunteer of the Year doesn’t have to mean someone has done the most hours or the most extreme volunteering, but someone who has dedicated at least part of their time consistently to making a difference in their community.
So let’s recognise the hard work of volunteers together, nominate for our “Volunteer of the Year” award today
Age can’t stop you from making a difference to your community!
Regardless of the scope, whether it’s with individuals or organisations, your support will have a positive impact large or small.
And it’s willingness to help consistently that makes someone volunteer of the year material.
If you’d like to recognise the efforts of the next generation of community minded folk, please nominate today!
VCSE Organisations have such an incredible impact on their community, but it’s the individual people who are doing the work and making the difference.
Our VCSE Employee of the Year award is for those who realise working in the sector is more than just a job. They go above and beyond expectations to provide support to the community.
If you know someone who has sent positive ripple effects across their organisation or community, please nominate them today and help us recognise their extra efforts!
Community groups can be so many different things. From sports teams, to reading or hobby clubs, to support groups, there is a community of people like you waiting to welcome you in!
The impact of having support and a place to go relax and meet new friends can’t be replaced. Community groups band together to make a difference in lots of unexpected ways! From the impact on involved individuals, or even community projects and activities, there is so much good being done.

Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) organisations often operate with the goal to enrich the lives of their community.

Game changers, risk takers and mould breakers!
We’re looking for a VCSE organisation that has stepped up for Stockton-on-Tees.

New VCSE organisations are formed each year, by an individual or people coming together and tackling an important community goal together.
We want to celebrate those that have taken the plunge this year and have already made an impact on their community.
