Call for Nominations
We were planning to introduce a revised awards scheme this year, but the corona virus has made this impossible. Next year the society is 50 years old. This gives us the opportunity to announce Leicester Civic Society’s 50th Anniversary Heritage and Design Awards.
The nominations to date are:
Heritage Award
St Martins Lodge – St Martins Square
Somerville House – Formerly the Old Nursing Lodge, Towers Hospital
Great Central Station – Gt Central Street
Design Award
Mattiolli Woods building – New Walk
Unison building – Friars Mill complex
No 1 Great Central Square – Great Central Street
We welcome new nominations. for new build or restored property completed between January 2018 and December 2020. Just give us the name of the building and its location and we will do the rest. Nominations for an individual who has contributed to heritage and design in Leicester are also welcome.
Please send your nominations to chair@leicestercivicsociety.org.uk in order to enable us to contact the appropriate people for further information. Judging will take place in early 2021.
Awards Judging Panel
We are looking for members to join the awards judging panel.
It is not a prerequisite for inclusion on the judging panel to have experience or qualifications in conservation, heritage, planning or architecture; but if you have that would be great.
The judging process will take place in 2021.
If you are interested in being on the judging panel, please express your interest by email chair@leicestercivicsociety.org.uk . Thank you.
