The search to find the UK’s favourite National Lottery funded projects has begun as the entry period for The National Lottery Awards 2015 opens.
Now in their 12th year, the National Lottery Awards celebrate the hard work and dedication of people who are using Lottery funding to change people’s lives.
The public votes for the winners who attend a star-studded awards ceremony, which is televised on BBC One. This gives the general public an opportunity to hear about projects large and small that have benefited from National Lottery funding. Winners also receive a £2,000 cash prize to spend on their project.
Any organisation that has received National Lottery funding can enter the National Lottery Awards 2015. There are seven categories to reflect the range of areas that the Lottery funds - Sport, Heritage, Arts, Environment, Health, Education and Voluntary/Charity.
If you want to nominate your favourite project or enter your own project in this year’s National Lottery Awards, visit: www.lotterygoodcauses.org.uk or contact 0207 293 3599.
