Time to celebrate! Entries open for UK Active Awards
BY Tom Walker
Entries are now open for the annual UK Active Awards.
Following two years of unparalleled disruption, UK Active has added two COVID-19-related award categories which will focus on the recovery, resilience and successes achieved throughout the pandemic.
A Jan Spaticchia Special Recognition Award will also make its debut, launched to celebrate the life of the much loved industry veteran who died suddenly of cancer in 2021. The award will recognise an outstanding individual who has made a continued and significant impact across the breadth of the sector.
Organisations of all types and sizes can enter the awards, with the deadline for submissions set for Friday 25 February. Those wanting to enter can do so by clicking HERE.
Huw Edwards, CEO of ukactive, said: "The ukactive Awards celebrate the endeavour and ingenuity demonstrated by our businesses and the teams behind our success.
“There has never been a more important time to recognise your team’s efforts and then to unite with the sector this summer in celebration.”
The UK Active Awards ceremony will be organised in tandem with the Active Uprising event, which will be held in Birmingham on 30 June 2022.
