Nominate your 'Volunteer of the Year' at the 2nd annual Volunteer awards.

The Vegan Society will be holding our 2nd ‘Volunteer of the Year’ Awards, hosted again by the Just V Show on Saturday 4th July. The lovely Ms Cupcake will present the winners with their awards at a special ceremony during the event at London Olympia, which you can attend for free, thanks to The Vegan Society.

The Volunteers of the Year will each win an amazing hamper overflowing with goodies generously donated by Vegan Society Trademark Holders (including Ten Acre, Ms Cupcake, Choc Shot and Rebel Kitchen), as well as a trip to London to attend the Awards themselves. Last year, winners of the awards Debbie (Volunteer of the Year) and Abigail (Young Volunteer of the Year) were overwhelmed with their awards and prizes! This year winners will be presented with gifts from Lavera, Astonish, Bourgeois Boheme, Amy's Kitchen, Conscious Chocolate and Original Source.

Nominations for the Volunteer of the Year Awards are now open; we will pick three winners across three different categories:

• Outreach Volunteer of the Year – the winner will be a volunteer who has demonstrated great outreach on behalf of The Vegan Society. They could be an Events volunteer, Local Contact, Speaker, volunteer writer for the magazine or blog, or any other volunteer engaging in vegan outreach alongside us.

• Vegan HQ Volunteer of the Year – the winner of this category will be nominated by those frequent to the offices of the Vegan Society (staff, trustees and volunteers), and the winner will be a volunteer who helps out in Vegan HQ, whether as an Office Volunteer or Student Volunteer.

• Support Volunteer – the winner will be a volunteer who supports The Society remotely, whether you are a Trustee, write for the magazine or blog, help with specific projects, or volunteer in any other way.

We are looking to receive nominations for volunteers who have gone out of their way to be an excellent and committed volunteer for The Vegan Society, reaching new audiences to promote veganism and supporting Vegan Society staff in their work.

If you know anyone who has shown their commitment to volunteering with The Vegan Society please nominate them, or you can even nominate yourself. All nominations will be considered by a panel comprised of Vegan Society staff (including two former Vegan Society volunteers).

To nominate a volunteer for any of the categories above, please submit a nomination including the name, volunteer role and contact information of the volunteer being nominated, along with a brief description about why you think they should win the award.

Nominations should be sent by email to volunteer[at]vegansociety[dot]com, or mailed to the office, no later than Monday 15th June at 5pm.
