Creme of Nature Awards UK

Monday, 14 December 2009

Now into its third year, the Award is focused on those in African Caribbean voluntary, faith and community groups in the UK, whose primary objective is to support and encourage women. The closing date for funding applications is the 28th February 2010. Applications are welcome from individuals to small groups, but priority will be given to those who have an annual turnover of less than £50,000. The 2010 Award will be £10,000 and there will also be 4 runners up who will also receive cash awards ranging from £500 to £1,750.

The Judges will choose the 5 Community Action Award Finalists.

The money can be used for a wide range of projects and activities. Applicants could be an established group that is in desperate need of premises refurbishment, or perhaps an organisation that is looking to develop a new community programme. The public will then be invited to vote for their preferred finalist in knock-out rounds of online voting during May 2010.

The 2009 Creme of Nature Community Action Award was won by the Shern Hall Youth Methodist Steel Band who used the money to purchase a set of new steel pans.
