Millenium Awards

UnLtd's Millennium Awards provide practical and financial support to social entrepreneurs in the UK; people with vision, passion, drive and commitment, who want to change the world for the better.

There are thousands of people who have the ideas and the vision to make a real difference. Many of them need encouragement and support, contact with others just like them, and access to training to help them grow and give their projects the best chance of success.

That's why you don't just get money from UnLtd. If you win an award you will get a complete package of support designed just for you, in addition to the financial support.

Levels of award
UnLtd currently offers two levels of award:
Level 1: Awards of between £500 and £5,000 (expected average of £2,000)
Level 2: Awards of between £10,000 and £20,000 (expected average of £15,000)

Level 1 Awards are designed to help make new ideas become real projects. UnLtd gives out 1,000 Level 1 Awards each year across the UK. Level 1 Awards are aimed at individuals or informal groups of people who have an idea and want help getting it off the ground. The money is to help with the running costs of the project.

Level 2 Awards support people whose ideas are already developed or pay for the living expenses of Award Winners to help them devote more time to their projects. These Awards are given out once in the spring and once in the winter.

It is people who are important to UnLtd; which is why they only offer support to individuals. Unltd does NOT support organisations.
