Time running out to enter impact awards

Time is running out to enter awards, organised by Derby Social Ventures, which celebrate the organisations, businesses and individuals creating positive change across the city.

The closing date for the Derby Impact Awards 2026 is Monday 26 October.

They recognise the organisations, businesses, charities, social enterprises and individuals who are creating positive social, environmental and economic impact across Derby and Derbyshire.

Keith Jeffrey, co-founder of Derby Social Ventures, said: “There are people and organisations across Derby doing brilliant work whose impact deserves to be better known.

“If your work is improving lives, creating opportunities or helping the environment, we want to hear your story.

“You don’t have to be a large organisation to make a difference. Tell us what you have achieved, who has benefited and why it matters.”

The Derby Impact Awards 2026 are set to take place at Derby Museums’ Museum & Art Gallery on Thursday 19 November, with Nimbus Disability as strategic partner.
