Well done everyone!
The Community Reporter's Programme has been shortlisted for a UK Technology4Good award. The nomination is for an award, in the 'Community Voices' category. Panelists had to sift through over 200 enteries to select finalists. To be included in this small list of finalists is a great achievement and celebrates our goal to give local people a voice and is a tribute to all of our Community Reporters!
The T4G awards are for organisations that “use digital technologies to help change our communities for the better”. In particular, the Community Voice Award is judged on how well an organisation is at “using digital media and the internet to give a voice to people in excluded communities… telling stories in innovative, high quality and inspiring ways…creating solutions that are sharable and/or replicable by others”.
The award will be presented at a ceremony in London on June the 7th , where we and all the other finalists will gather.
Keep your fingers crossed!
