The Sport and Recreation Alliance is delighted to announce that entries for the Community Sport and Recreation Awards 2021 are now open, with cash prizes and national recognition up for grabs.
This year has been unlike any other and they would love to recognise all those who have helped the nation to stay active, healthy and happy at this incredibly challenging time.
The awards are free and simple to enter and they are keen to hear about your projects and initiatives that work with people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds.
There are five categories in which you can enter, with each winning project picking up a £1,000 prize at a virtual awards ceremony in February. The five categories are:
- Youth Development Award
- Resilience in Adversity Award
- Mental Health and Wellbeing Award
- Diversity and Inclusion Award
- Sustainable Programme Award
Previous winners have used their prize money to purchase new kit and equipment, provide coaching qualifications to develop their volunteers and keep their facilities open for longer, to name just a few examples.
The deadline for entries is midnight on Monday 21 December. For more details on the process, the criteria and how to enter, visit our Community Sport and Recreation Awards page or email awards@sportandrecreation.org.uk.
