The Glasgow Times

Community Champion Awards

Summary

The Glasgow Times Community Champion Awards have been rewarding locals who make Glasgow a better place to live for 16 years. The awards go right to the heart of communities across the city, from the north east, south and north west, before bringing the area finalists together at the end of the year for an overall, city-wide celebration. The 2023 awards took place on Tuesday, December 5 at the Glasgow City Chambers.

So far, more than 1,500 community champions have been recognised as finalists and winners. Our community champions are recognised across nine categories to ensure that local heroes of all types are identified. The range of categories, paired with our area-by-area approach, give the awards a unique ability to reach and reward those whose efforts may otherwise go unnoticed.
