🎉 Village Halls Inspiration Awards 2025 – WINNERS ANNOUNCED! 🎉

We’ve been absolutely blown away by the incredible number of entries this year. The creativity, community spirit, and amount of hard work happening in village halls across the UK is nothing short of amazing.

Choosing just three winners was extremely difficult — genuinely, we could have picked dozens! So a massive thank you to everyone who took the time to submit their stories and ideas.

After much deliberation, we’re thrilled to announce this year’s winners:

🥇 1. Fishburn Youth & Community Centre – £2,500 prize
🥈 2. Aultbea Hall – £1,500 prize
🥉 3. Nunney Village Hall – £1,000 prize

Huge congratulations to these amazing halls — your projects truly stood out!

And there’s more… We’ll be recording a special podcast episode with our winning entries very soon, so you’ll be able to hear their stories in full.

Even if you didn’t win this time, don’t worry — so many brilliant ideas caught our attention, and we’d love to invite more of you onto future podcast episodes. There’s so much happening in villages around the UK, and we want to help share those inspiring stories.

Thank you again to everyone who entered — you’re what makes village halls the heart of our communities.
