Volunteer Awards

On Thursday, 28 November, Voluntary Support North Surrey proudly hosted the annual Surrey Heath Volunteer Awards in partnership with Surrey Heath Borough Council at Chobham Golf Club. These awards bring our incredible volunteering community together  to recognise and celebrate their dedication and selflessness.

We were honoured to welcome the Mayor of Surrey Heath, Councillor Sarbie Kang, who presented awards to the winners in front of an audience of over 100 inspiring individuals and organisations.

This year, we received a record number of nominations, making the task of selecting winners a challenging one for our judging panel. Each story showcased the remarkable strength, commitment, and compassion of Surrey Heath’s voluntary sector, highlighting the true spirit of community.

On Monday 3 June, Voluntary Support North Surrey co-hosted the annual Runnymede & Spelthorne Volunteer Awards 2024 in partnership with Royal Holloway, University at London. We run these awards every year to celebrate the incredible volunteering communities in both boroughs and it was the perfect way to start Volunteers’ Week.

We received a record number of nominations for the awards. While it made it a difficult job for our judging panel it was inspiring to hear of all the incredible contributions volunteers make to Runnymede and Spelthorne every day.

Many thanks to our terrific co-hosts Royal Holloway University and their Volunteering team, Runnymede Borough Council with a special thanks to The Worshipful Mayor of Runnymede, Councillor Elaine Gill and Spelthorne Borough Council for all their support.

On 30th November, VSNS held the Surrey Heath Volunteer Awards 2023 at Chobham Golf Club with over 100 in attendance. We run these awards annually in celebration of the boroughs outstanding voluntary sector and were kindly joined by the Mayor of Surrey Heath, Councillor Pat Tedder, to present awards to the winners.

We received nearly 100 nominations for the awards, a testament to the phenomenal voluntary work in Surrey Heath in 2023. It was a pleasure to see so many faces and hear so many heartening stories of the impact our volunteers make in the community.

Many congratulations to the winners and a heartfelt thank you to not only each and every nominee but to the dedication and selflessness of every volunteer in Surrey Heath.

We had a fantastic night on Monday 5th June at this year’s Runnymede and Spelthorne Volunteer Awards which were hosted and jointly held with Royal Holloway University, with over 300 people attending.

Congratulations to all of our impressive winners. We heard wonderful stories of people making how people care for one another in our communities reflected in the large number of nominations we received.
