The RCC Board wishes to acknowledge the achievements of those projects who have worked over the last 4+ years. To do this the next Change Champions Network event will be reshaped to include an awards ceremony. The awards will be taken from the case studies in the report and the winners will be chosen by a small panel of RCC Board members. The winning team in each category will win a trophy, £100 in gift vouchers and free publicity.

The award categories will include:

• Volunteer led and run
• Mental ill health
• Dementia
• Raising awareness
• Spread or reach into the community
• The future of young people
• Support for people with addictions or vulnerability

The event will be held at The Val Waterhouse Centre, Grimsby from 12:30 to 2:30pm, on 13 February 2017.
