The 25th Birthday National Lottery Awards
The 25th Birthday National Lottery Awards is the annual search to find the UK's favourite Lottery-funded projects and people. The Awards are a great way of celebrating the ordinary people doing extraordinary things with National Lottery funding.
This year, the Awards reflect our 25-year legacy, giving us a fantastic opportunity to celebrate projects and people who have benefited from National Lottery funding over the last quarter of a century.
