Do you know someone in your community who is making a real difference for nature? The Norfolk Community Biodiversity Awards 2025 are your chance to recognise and celebrate the passion, dedication and hard work of local volunteers and groups across the county.

Richard Waddingham Ponds Award

Groups

Rivers and Wetlands (not ponds)

The awards will be presented on Saturday 4th October at The Forum, Norwich.

🌿 Biodiversity Fair – Free Stands Available
Ahead of the Awards ceremony, a Biodiversity Fair will take place. Community groups and volunteers are invited to host a free stand—this is a fantastic opportunity to network, share ideas, inspire the public, and recruit new volunteers. You don’t have to be nominated for an award to take part. To request a stand, email biodiversityawards@norfolk.gov.uk.

Please help spread the word—share this with friends, neighbours, and local groups, and display the event poster (available on the Norfolk Biodiversity website).

Let’s come together to celebrate the individuals and groups who are helping nature thrive in Norfolk!
