Time running out to enter Third Sector Awards at reduced rate

The early-bird deadline for reduced-rate entry to the Third Sector Awards is rapidly approaching. 

The Third Sector Awards celebrate the work of voluntary sector organisations and the difference they make to society. 

There are 32 categories this year, covering sector excellence, partnerships and talent, including an award for Best Service Delivery Innovation that will recognise outstanding work to help people facing the cost-of-living crisis.

Charities and not-for-profit organisations have until 11.59pm on 3 May to submit entries at the reduced early-bird rate.

The awards continue to include a scheme to spotlight the successes of small, micro, local and ethnic minority-led charities by offering a batch of free-entry places to charities with annual incomes of less than £100,000.

Entries will be judged by an independent panel of sector experts chaired by Nihara Krause, who is founder, chief executive and clinical lead of Stem4 and who won the Charity Chief Executive award at last year’s event. 

Stem4, which supports the mental health of young people in secondary schools, colleges and universities through mental health literacy and early intervention, took home the Charity of the Year award in the small organisation category last year.

The awards ceremony will take place at lunchtime on 22 September in central London.
