Volunteering Awards East Lothian

VCEL champions the Inspiring Volunteer Awards and is also involved in the Scottish Government’s Saltire Awards programme.

Inspiring Volunteer Awards

Community, Environmental & Education, Health & Wellbeing, Outstanding Trustee, Volunteer Team, Young Volunteer of the Year (under 25) and Lifelong Commitment Volunteer of the Year.

The communities of East Lothian are made all the better because of people volunteering their time and skills for the benefit of others. So if you know anyone you think deserves an award, let us know by nominating them!
