Civic Awards 2010    - Nominations close 31st January  

  

The Southwark Civic Association is an independent organisation made up of Individuals, businesses, heritage and community groups in Southwark. It was founded to promote the interests of the borough and encourage civic pride among its inhabitants. The association has, each year since 1997, organised the Southwark Civic Awards. The awards are a prestigious event normally held in May.

  

The awards are made each year on the strength of the nominations you can make on our site, as well as on paper forms found throughout the borough. The Southwark Civic Association receives the nominations and considers if an award is appropriate. Awards are not normally given to people who are just doing the job they are paid for, we look rather at what someone has brought to the community because they are selfless and dedicated to making a difference in the borough.  We are planning the 2009 ceremony now and look forward to receiving a great number of nominations.
