Put your business or community organisation in the running for a prestigious award, as entries for the Gloucestershire Lifestyle & Community Awards 2026 are officially open at soglos.com/lifestyle-community-awards!
Proudly supported by headline co-partners, Made in Gloucestershire and Pro Global, along with an esteemed collection of category partners, there are 17 hotly contested categories to enter – including brand-new categories for 2026 like Sports Team / Club of the Year, Volunteer Award, Fundraiser Award and Community Award.
The Gloucestershire Lifestyle Awards first launched in 2018 to celebrate the very best of the county's diverse and thriving lifestyle sector, with this year's celebration building on this success to celebrate incredible community organisations, too.
Giving businesses and community organisations the chance to receive recognition for their hard work, the Gloucestershire Lifestyle & Community Awards include a rigorous shortlisting process, a public vote and a final judging stage completed by representatives from our headline and category partners, with the winners being revealed for the very first time at the dazzling awards ceremony in May 2026.
Winners from all the categories are also in with the chance of being crowned the overall Lifestyle and Community Business of the Year — with the winner of this special accolade being handpicked by the headline co-partners.
Entries must be made through an official representative of the company or organisation — so remember to send your favourite Gloucestershire businesses a link to the page below if you want to see them in the running!
This year's ceremony takes place once again at the spectacular Pittville Pump Room on Thursday 21 May 2026, with thanks to our event partner The Cheltenham Trust, which is also providing a welcome drink and a tasty street food supper, too.
Our inimitable compere, BBC Points West presenter Steve Knibbs, is also back on board to reveal the winners for the very first time.
