Coronation Champions Awards and Coronation Big Lunch

To mark the Coronation of Their Majesties, The Coronation Champions Awards, with the support of Her Majesty The Queen Consort, will celebrate and recognise inspiring volunteers who have made an exceptional difference in their communities.  Her Majesty is a passionate and long-standing advocate of volunteering and Royal Voluntary Service is organising the awards to acknowledge the contributions of volunteers across the UK.  They will commend outstanding volunteers from all communities and also aim to inspire others to explore what volunteering has to offer.  There will be eight categories of awards, from volunteering in health or animal welfare, to supporting the environment or sports and heritage.   Anyone can nominate a volunteer they know for an award.  Judges will also be on the lookout to celebrate rising stars as ‘Young Coronation Champions’ (aged 14-18).

The awards opened for nominations on 20th February 2023 and will close on 2nd April. 500 Coronation Champions will be announced before the Coronation weekend.  Visit www.royalvoluntaryservice.org.uk/coronation-champions-awards to nominate a volunteer or to find out more.

The Coronation Champions Awards, along with the Big Help Out, will place volunteering at the heart of the Coronation celebrations, aiming to build a lasting legacy of volunteering spirit.
