Ramsgate Community Champions Awards, 2024

The Ramsgate Society Community Champions Award is a special award given to local people who, in the opinion of the Society’s Executive Committee, have made an exceptional contribution to the quality of life in the town. This year we are working in partnership with Ramsgate Town Council to celebrate the work of those people who, often unsung, contribute so much to the quality of life in our local community.

There are a great many people in Ramsgate who donate their time, effort and enthusiasm as volunteers to make Ramsgate a better place to live and work. Whether it’s by volunteering for food banks, picking up litter, caring for our parks, gardens and open spaces, organising community events, organising Heritage Open Days, the Ramsgate Arts Festival or The Film Festival, these people contribute enormously to our quality of life in the town. They often do this without any sort of praise or recognition for what they do and most of them wouldn't want it any other way. They do their work because they want to give something back to the community in which they live.

We will be putting out a call for nominations shortly with a view to an Awards Event in the Autumn. For more information and to make a nomination go to the Ramsgate Society website - www.ramsgate-society.org.uk/community-champion-awards-2024
