The Pride of Andover Awards have been celebrating local residents who quietly make a difference to other people’s lives since 2007.
This year the committee would like to welcome 3 new members, Hollie Grace, Lily Ward and Sarah Gisbourne, as they join Karen Hamilton, Katie Brooks, Angela Saunders and Clarissa Woodhouse as part of this year’s Pride of Andover Awards committee, each bringing a new set of skills to enhance the committee and strengthen our collective efforts in recognising excellence and achievement throughout the town, as well as working hard and combining their volunteer roles to ensure that October 2025 Pride of Andover Awards, sponsored by New Street Dental Practice, is our best year yet.
Andover has a great community, and the team are excited to be able to be a part of an event that highlights those that deserve recognition for their commitment and involvement within Andover. The Pride of Andover Awards are looking for a local business to sponsor the Sports and Arts category.
The Sports & Arts Award recognises an individual or group that displays outstanding skill and excellence in their chosen sport or artistic field. Demonstrates dedication, perseverance, and a positive impact on their community or team whilst inspiring others through creativity, teamwork, or leadership in their discipline.
