Charity Impact Awards 2020 Shortlist Announcement

We are delighted to announce the shortlist for the Charity Impact Awards 2020.

We received over 150 entries for this year's awards (50% more than in 2019), which made selecting a final shortlist more difficult than ever. We offer our hearty congratulations to those on the list, but also want to emphasise how challenging it was to select just five entries from each category — the standards this year were incredibly high.
