Great Place To Live Competition
Each year, Clann holds a national competition to recognise and celebrate the efforts that you and your neighbours put into making your communities great places to live!
The annual Great Place to Live Competition recognises and celebrates the efforts that you and your neighbours put into making your neighbourhoods great places to live!
Each year there are three categories for you to choose between, simply select which is suitable for you and your neighbourhood to enter. Categories include:
There are three categories:
- Best Neighbourhood: This award recognises the scheme with the strongest community spirit. Have there been any social events or activities in your area? What makes your area a great place to live?
- Best Community Project: This award recognises the community projects that have made a difference in your scheme. Are there any groups, community gardens or neighbours’ day events that made a big difference to your neighbourhood lately?
- Community Neighbour Award: Is there anyone who really makes a difference in your community? Someone who helps out or organises activities? What makes them a great neighbour?
- Biodiversity & Sustainability Award: We are excited to introduce a new category to Great Places to Live which will begin in 2022. This award will recognise people who demonstrate an understanding and awareness of nature and biodiversity, and how you encourage, promote, protect, and manage the local species and habitats in your community.
If you or someone you know is committed to making your community a better place then we want to hear from you. It’s easy and free for you to enter the Great Place to Live Competition. Applications must be submitted by Friday 13th August. You can find out more from:
