Charity Excellence Awards

The Charity Excellence Awards celebrate dedication, innovation, and impact across the charity sector. Recognised as the pinnacle of achievement, these awards spotlight the extraordinary people and teams driving meaningful change—from visionary trustees and inspiring fundraisers to unsung heroes in finance and exceptional corporate partners. This is more than an awards night—it’s a tribute to the best our sector offers.

The 2025 Finalists Have Arrived!

On 2 October 2025, the Charity Excellence Awards Gala Dinner will light up the Round Room at the Mansion House, celebrating the very best of the charity sector.

It’s a night dedicated to recognising achievements, rewarding excellence, and shining a spotlight on the impact of remarkable organisations and individuals.

2025 People's Choice Award

Select your favourite shortlisted charity finalist from the 2025 Awards. The entry with the most votes will be awarded the 2025 People's Choice Award.

Voting opens on the 15th of August, 2025.

The Charity Excellence Awards celebrate excellence across the sector. Although a Judging panel selects most award winners, perhaps the most meaningful award is the People's Choice Award, as it reflects the voice of the entire charity community.

Voting is officially open until the 26th of September! Submit your vote for your favourite shortlisted charity finalist this year. The charity with the most votes will win and be declared along with other winners at the CEA2025 Gala Dinner on the 2nd of October.

Plus, your vote will go into a draw to win an Amazon Echo Dot!
