For the Lambeth Civic Awards, residents of Lambeth were asked to nominate local individuals, groups and organisations that do amazing work in the borough. The awards aim to recognise and celebrate the incredible work that Lambeth’s community does to help others.
Our Award Finalists Announced!
The Civic Awards nominations were open between Monday 16 December and Sunday 2 February. We asked you to nominate individuals, groups and organisations that make a difference through their time, work, or passion to help others.
During the six-week nomination period, Lambeth Council received hundreds of nominations. Thank you to everyone who showed their appreciation and took time to nominate.
