Nominations are now open for the King’s Award for Voluntary Service (KAVS), which celebrates the outstanding work of local volunteer groups across the UK.
Nominations must be made by a member of the public with a good knowledge of the group’s work (such as a beneficiary or long-term supporter – but not a volunteer or trustee). The nominator must also be able to supply two separate letters of support from two additional people who know the group well.
To be eligible for nomination, the group must be made up of three people or more, be based in the UK and be led by volunteers. Further eligibility criteria is available on the KAVS website.
The Award is the equivalent to an MBE, and is the highest award given to local voluntary groups in the UK. It is awarded for life.
Closing date for nominations: 1 December 2024
