National House Project
Local Government Chronicle Awards
Posted 19th March 2025
Sandwell House Project are excited to announce that we’ve been shortlisted for this years LGC Awards for “Small Team of the Year”.
What started out as a short 1000-word entry to share what we do as a Local House Project, now means that we get to go to London in April where House Project Lead, Hannah and one of our young people will present in front of a judging panel to decide whether we are worthy of winning.
The awards ceremony will take place in June at the prestigious JW Marriott Grosvenor House Hotel in London so therefore, ballgowns and suit jackets at the ready!
Wish us luck!!
