Our Community Volunteer Awards celebrate the immense positive contributions made by grassroots groups, voluntary organisations and volunteers throughout Blackburn with Darwen.
Last week, the Panel met to determine the list of finalists for this year’s Community Volunteer Awards. We’d like to thank everyone involved – and, of course, express our deep gratitude for the vast amounts of good work done by volunteers and organisations throughout our communities.
We are also deeply grateful to our wonderful sponsors, without whose support none of this work would be possible.
Here are a few quotes from panellists:
“It’s always a pleasure to go through all the nominations and see so many wonderful people doing such fantastic things.”
“I had a lovely day and felt very humbled seeing the nominations – what a wonderful world we live in with people who are so very generous with their time.”
“It was an absolute privilege to be part of the process, mainly because I was made to feel very welcome, but just reading amazing volunteering that goes unknown was just grounding.”
