Public voting for the semi-finals of The National Lottery Awards is now open. The National Lottery Awards are an annual search to find the UK’s favourite Lottery-funded projects. Lottery players raise around £28 million each week for Good Causes. These range from large scale, multi-million pound investments to small community grants. Thousands of great projects get the cash they need to make a real difference to people and their local communities across the UK.
There are seven categories in the Awards each reflecting the main areas of Lottery funding: arts; sport; heritage; health; environment, education (in association with Best magazine), charity and voluntary. The winning project in each of the categories will receive national recognition at a star-studded event later this year, broadcast on BBC One, as well as a £2,000 cash prize to spend on their project.
