Last year's Wandsworth Civic Award winners

You can read about shortlisted residents on our website. The winners will be chosen by a panel of judges and will be handed their award at a ceremony in November.  

The Civic Awards celebrate and recognise Wandsworth residents that go above and beyond to help others and make outstanding contributions to the local community – often without any recognition.

This year nominees have been shortlisted in 11 categories. This was expanded from six due to the large number of high-quality entries: 

Mayor of Wandsworth Jeremy Ambache said: " Thank you to everyone who sent in a nomination. The judges found it difficult to choose from over 100 exceptional and committed nominations.  

“A Civic Award is the highest honour the council can bestow, and we have shortlisted some truly exceptional people who have given so much to our borough."
