BCP Women’s Community Impact Awards: Our Mission

Celebrating Strength when Diverse Women Create Community Impact Together!

The Women’s Community Impact (WCI) Awards are the annual flagship project of Arts for Survival, run every International Women’s Day (March 8th) to foster diverse community engagement.

These prestigious awards recognise local and national women, and their male allies, who have driven profound community impact and made a positive difference in their communities.

The WCI Awards proudly replace the BRONZE Awards, continuing the same empowering mission under a new name that better reflects our inclusive values and focus on impact.

Through the WCI Awards, we champion women’s histories and contributions, showcasing their pioneering steps to inspire the next generation. We aim to establish these leaders as meaningful legends whose journeys demonstrate that future female achievement has no boundaries.

We sincerely invite you to take part in the nomination process for the 2026 Awards.

The Women’s Community Impact Awards event is not your usual voting and black-tie-and-table awards ceremony.

Our modern and established system presents an enchanting fusion of symposium and awards, creating time for guests to connect and entertainment. Our positive feedback of over 93 per cent each year tell us it is well approved and welcome by the community.

The Women’s Community Impact Awards is not a competition, and there will be no prize. With this in mind, we operate a non-voting system. Nominations are reviewed by a review panel to make sure evidence given satisfy activities with community impact.

Our reviewers are volunteers with extensive knowledge and experience working in the community and engaging with a wide range of communities.

To become our awards reviewer, please send an e-mail to the esther.enaw@artsforsurvival.co.uk if that fits your profile.  Introduce yourself and identify your field of expertise, community involvements and tell us you are interested in becoming a reviewer.

We will also appreciate if you also attach a summary of your CV carrying your up to date contact information with a maximum of 2-page CV. You are more than welcome to share this request with other colleagues or friends who might be interested in serving as a reviewer.
