Nominations are now open.


Nominate a volunteer for the 2023 Volunteer Awards – nominations are open until 10th September 2023.

The Active Devon Volunteer Awards were first launched in 2022 to recognise the contribution of the thousands of people across Devon who volunteer their time to help others get active.

The awards are your chance to say thank you to someone you know who goes the extra mile to support people in your community to be more active. They might be a coach, an activity group leader, a club committee member, or a charity group activity organiser. Whatever their role, their dedication and commitment to volunteering will have made a difference, contributing to improved health and well-being within their local communities by providing opportunities for people to move more.

With your help we want to recognise, thank and celebrate these inspirational volunteers.

The winners of the Active Devon Volunteer Awards 2023 will each receive an award and a celebration with their group or team, as well as the chance to showcase the brilliant work they do.

Full details can be found here.
