Has your project benefited from Lottery cash ?

If so, then why not apply for the National Lottery Awards 2010?

The annual search to find the UK's favourite Lottery-funded projects has started.

We know your project has made a difference to people, places and communities? So let's celebrate and share our success.

You could win a £2000 personal prize and if you reach the finals, your project will feature in a special BBC1 show in the autumn.

National Lottery players raise £25 million a week for arts, sport, heritage, health, education, environment, charity and voluntary projects all across the UK. Now in their seventh year, the Awards showcase the achievements of Lottery-funded projects large and small and recognise the dedication of the people behind these projects who are making a real difference in their local communities.

If you think your project has got what it takes to go all the way to the final, then this year it could be you! It's your chance to tell your story and celebrate all the hard work and dedication of your team.

You have until 5pm on Friday 12 February 2010 to apply.
