Thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate an individual or team. Your nominations help us recognise the people who make a real difference across Swindon’s communities.
The Pride of Swindon Awards were first launched in 2008. They celebrate individuals and teams who have made a significant positive impact on people and neighbourhoods in the Borough of Swindon.
Voluntary Action Swindon joined the organising team in 2019. Since then, the awards have continued to highlight the dedication, kindness and commitment shown by community members across Swindon.

Each year, finalists are invited to a local celebration event with afternoon tea, where their achievements are recognised.
- Individual winners receive a Pride of Swindon lapel badge and certificate
- Team winners receive a trophy and certificate
- All award holders are recognised by a plaque displayed in Swindon Central Library, listing every year’s winners
The 2026 awards will mark the 14th Pride of Swindon celebration. The organisers would like to thank all current and past sponsors for their continued support.
The celebration will take place on Thursday, 5 March 2026.
