So much time has elapsed since the last No2H8 Awards event in 2019. A pandemic has come and gone, the world has changed and many of us could not get together for 2 years to enjoy each other’s company or to celebrate community events.

With the worst of the pandemic behind us, we are proud to announce that that the No2H8 Awards will be held in November 2022. It is our collective chance to honour the best of our communities and the best of those within who stand against hatred, prejudice and intolerance.

We will also be announcing our media partners for the No2H8 Awards in due course and we wanted to highlight the key nomination dates where members of the public can nominate an individual or an organisation for one of the Award categories, The 2019 winners are listed here.

Nominations will open on the 18th of July 2022 and they will close on the 9th of September 2022.

Watch out for links to the nomination forms and in the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact us if you would like to discuss any matter related to the No2H8 Awards.

We are pleased to announce that the first of the annual National Hate Crime Awards ceremonies will be launched on November 17th 2016.

The National Hate Crime Awards ceremony has been devised by Faith Matters who co-ordinate the national Tell MAMA project, though the awards ceremony is a strong partnership of  a range of national hate crime agencies who work with a variety of communities in supporting their needs when they have been targeted for a hate incident or hate crime.

As Jo Cox stated in her maiden speech in Parliament,

“While we celebrate our diversity, what surprises me time and time again as I travel around the constituency is that we are far more united and have far more in common with each other than things that divide us.”

We hope that the National Hate Crime Awards ceremony of 2016 (#NHCA2016), will be an annual gathering of those individuals, activists and organisations who have stood out and spoken up against hatred, intolerance and prejudice. Only by working together as communities, can we remain vigilant against the scourge of such hatred and extremism, which has no part to play in our country.

The Awards will also be an opportunity to celebrate what is so special about our communities and to honour those who care about the security of our nation and the dignity of individuals. By honouring them, we hope that the NHCA2016 will be a rallying call and motivator for others to follow in the path of countering prejudice and hatred that so blights the lives of some in our country.
