Thank you for taking the time to
vote in this year's Visionary Awards.
Visionary members and partners are amazing,
and we never hesitate to shout about it and tell as many people as possible. It
is also the reason we host our Annual Awards.
The Visionary Annual Awards celebrate and
recognise the amazing work of organisations across the Visionary network,
acknowledging the positive difference your organisations make to the lives of
blind and partially sighted people in local communities. The awards
highlight the achievements of local charities, share good practice, along with
shining a spotlight on the talent, expertise and impact of the local sight loss
sector.
Award Sponsors
We are delighted that this
year's awards have been sponsored by Fight for Sight, Guide Dogs UK, RNIB, Specsavers and The Powell Family
Foundation.
Shortlisted Nominees
As in previous years, Visionary
members have nominated their own achievements as well as the activities of
other organisations. We received a high number of nominations this year and
competition was strong. The short-listing panels had to work hard
to select the final nominees.
Whilst the individual summaries
are a concise description of the award submissions, be assured that all
short-listed nominations clearly demonstrated how they met the individual award
criteria and evidenced the positive difference they make to the lives of blind
and partially sighted people.
Voting
- Votes can
only be cast by Visionary Members and Visionary Partners.
- Each Member and Partner organisation has one single vote in each category.
- You will need to decide who in your organisation is going to place your organisation's category votes (and of course you will need to agree where to actually place your organisation's votes).
- If we receive more than one vote from your organisation we will use the first vote submission as your organisation’s vote.
If your organisation has made
the short-list then you should quite rightly be proud - so, please don't be shy to vote for yourself!
All votes must be cast by 10am on Thursday 19 September.
If you have any queries or would like further information, please email Visionary.
Good luck to all and thank you for taking the time to vote!
