Volunteer of the Year Awards 2020 – Nominations now open!!

Voluntary Action Islington exists to encourage and support individuals and community organisations to make a positive difference in life in the Borough. Each year we organise awards to celebrate the achievements of people volunteering in Islington. In a year riven by Covid-19, it’s even more important that we all celebrate the efforts our volunteers made to help people affected by the virus, in one way or another. The awards sponsored by DoubleTree by Hilton Islington will be presented at the Voluntary Action Islington AGM on the evening of Wednesday 18th November. Any individual volunteering in Islington can be nominated for an award.

This year there will be 5 awards:

1. Young Volunteer of the Year: 16 – 25-year-olds
2. Volunteer of the Year: 26 – 60-year-olds
3. Older Volunteer of the Year: 60+-year-olds
4. Pat Haynes Memorial Trustee of the Year
5. Volunteering Team of the Year

The awards will be presented at the Voluntary Action Islington AGM on the evening of Wednesday on 18th November. A panel will judge the nominations.

The closing date for nominations is on Sunday 8th November.

Any individual volunteering in Islington can be nominated for an award.

Award winners will receive a certificate and a prize. Prizes will be donated by Doubletree by Hilton London Islington.
