Event Details

The event will take place at Caffe Isola in March and is aimed specifically at these organisations. Event organiser Maggie Currie said:

“Following feedback from the very successful events we held in 2023 and 2024, we have kept the same categories. For the most inspirational person of the year category, once again our panel of judges will select four finalists who will be announced in advance of the ceremony in March and will be voted on by the public. As ever, community organisations don’t have much money to spare, so we wanted to hold an evening event that fits the pockets of those who would like to come along and celebrate the Isle of Wight Community without breaking the bank.”

The entries to the categories are free and event tickets are kept affordable. Caffe Isola will have food available for purchase as well as a licensed bar.
