Base 51, a young people’s charity in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire, is hosting the Power In Partnerships Awards.
Taking place at Alea Casino on the Friday 21st March 2025 the awards will shine a light on the amazing work being done by charities, CICs and local business to support vulnerable people in the East Midlands.
Verity Woods, Head of Fundraising, said:
“We’re delighted to be back for a 3rd year with these awards; without partnership work between charities and local businesses there would be a huge gap in the support available for the area’s most vulnerable. These awards highlight the amazing work being done and give people a “thank you” for their efforts – all whilst having a great evening out. We are especially excited about this event as it’ll be the finale event of an transformational week for Base 51, we’ll be sharing more information about that soon!”

“To be nominated was such an honour, having worked so closely with and for Base 51 many years ago I understand the real work you do to inspire young people. Therefore to proudly have on display a certificate and trophy with my name and Base51 on it, keeps me grounded makes me realise why I do the work I do.”
