Voting has now opened for a new £100,000 fund that will reward the work of vital community projects across the UK. The new Pride of Britain Fund will give away grants of £2,500, £1,000 and £500 to 65 groups and individuals providing much-needed support to communities across the country.
Michelle Linaker, trustee of the Pride of Britain Fund and head of Studio Live at Reach, said: “It’s amazing to see so many people doing small things that make a big difference in their communities. Whether it’s looking out for neighbours or giving kids safe places to play, they are truly unsung heroes. I’d encourage everybody to vote for their favourite as there are some fantastic nominations right across the country.
The public vote is open for a period of 4 weeks from 9am on Monday 3 February to 11:45pm on Sunday 2 March 2025, with the results announced a week after.
