Support for the Third Sector

Volunteers’ Week is the chance to celebrate our local volunteers and the wider third sector.  If you know someone who is volunteering in a defined role, let’s recognise their efforts.  Following the incredible success of Volunteers’ Week 2023, Clackmannanshire Third Sector Interface (CTSI) is planning a major Award Ceremony at Tillicoultry’s Devonvale Hall which will see local heroes receive awards for their selfless efforts.

The award categories for 2024 are:

  • Clackmannanshire Young Person of the Year (individual, up to 18 years of age)
  • Community Group of the Year (volunteer involving groups who have made a difference in Clackmannanshire)
  • Community Project with the Greatest Impact Award (group: the majority of the impact/operation of the service is based in Clackmannanshire)
  • Trustee of the Year (individual)
  • Community Spirit Award (individual: targeting those who volunteer informally)
  • Improving Health and Wellbeing Award (New award open to individuals: for volunteers who are improving lives in the Wee County)

The Volunteer’s Week 2024 Awards Ceremony (which is invite only) will take place on Thursday 6th June at Tillicoultry’s Devonvale Hall from 6.30pm – 8:30pm.

Nominations opened Friday 1st March and will close at 5pm on Sunday 14th April. As a thank you to those nominators, they will enter a prize draw for a £50 Amazon Gift Voucher.
