Community Awards
HORFIELD & LOCKLEAZE
2024 Awards
We asked you, the people, to nominate organisations, groups and individuals for awards. The nominations were then shortlisted by a panel of local residents and workers, who voted for their top three in a secret ballot.​
This year, we dedicated the 'Made a BIG difference' award category to the memory of local resident, David Thomas, who sadly died in 2023. David started the Horfield and Lockleaze Awards and generously supported many community projects and local charities, too many to name in this small space. We will be forever grateful for the big difference he made to Horfield, Lockleaze and beyond.
​
All those who were shortlisted were invited to attend an awards celebration evening, held on 23rd February at Lockleaze Sports Centre, where the nominations were shared, winners announced and everyone was celebrated!
