?Who do you know that deserves recognition??


Southwark Civic Awards 2015 - Nominations


Nominate Now !


The nomination period is for a limited time only, and all nominations must be received by January 31st.


Over the last seventeen years close to seven hundred people and seventy organisations have received Civic Awards. They include the young, the smart, the brave, the middle aged, the dedicated, the decent and deserving, the elderly the compassionate the caring and committed.


I know that all Honorands tremendously value their awards with many framing their beautiful citations and certificates. I know of Honorands whose family have travelled significant distances just to share that special moment for a special person at a Southwark awards ceremony.


The Southwark Civic Awards are yours and the community?s chance to nominate that ?special person, organisation, youth or school group? in a local community that improves the quality of life for others through their tireless efforts and voluntary contributions.


The awards are administered by the Southwark Civic Association, which is an independent organisation made up of businesses, heritage and community groups. The Association was founded to promote the interests of the borough and encourage civic pride.


All successful nominees (Honorands) and guests are invited to the prestigious Civic Awards Ceremony, which is held in May/June each year. Following the awards ceremony Honorands and their guests will be invited to attend a reception with the Mayor and civic dignitaries. It is a day when those who contribute to enhance the quality of life in Southwark are given the thanks they richly deserve.


This years ceremony will be held in Southwark Cathedral.

    • It struck me last year that any dialogue with Gala themselves e.g. at the box-ticking "Community Engagement Sessions" is completely pointless, as they are just a business trying to do whatever is necessary to hold their event; the park is just a venue to them, a necessary facility, and they'll say anything to secure it. They don't care about it's welfare or upkeep, over and above making sure there's no complaints big enough to prevent them using it again. I've found that discussing issues with them has just led to them using that info to counteract that issue - effectively helping them strengthen their position. What I find frustrating is that the council, despite being the body that decides on this, and should be representing local residents, takes no active part in any discussions or presentations, so there's no way to engage with them apart from an online consultation which is clearly also a box ticking exercise, bearing in mind for the last two years the overwhelming majority (97% of respondents) objected to the event. Why are Gala running the community meetings? Why do Gala run the issue hotline? If the council really care about the park and the surrounding community, and still allow this type of event, they should be way more hands on with taking responsibility for it's running, not just handing it all over to a profit making company.  Sorry, probably tldr but so sad about the repeated negative impact on our (once beautiful & peaceful) park and just exasperated that there's so little that can be done to halt it. This is just the start, it WILL turn into another Brockwell Park, and Gala & the council just don't care.
    • We used these guys for our underfloor heating, their heating engineer Sam was excellent. Very reassuring and sorted it all out properly.
    • They’re convenient. They’re fun to ride. From ED, getting a Lime to Brixton and then jumping on the tube is probably the fastest way to get into central London. There’s a reason they’re  popular.
    • You must be a cynic as in a previous post you’ve asked someone to have a go on one of these monstrous lime bikes! Not everyone is able to walk, let alone ride a bike!
