Winners of Bath Building Society’s Community Awards 2025
Bath Building Society relaunched its annual Community Awards last month as part of its pledge to give 2% of profits back to the community each year.
The newly named Community Awards reflects the scope of the initiative, which is suitable for charities, community groups, Community Interest Companies (CICs) and School PTAs in Bath and North East Somerset.
Bath Building Society has donated more than £123,000 through the annual Awards which launched in 2006, supporting over 150 local charities and community groups.
This year the funding pot increased to £15,000, more than doubling the amount available in previous years.
Local charities and community groups were able to apply for up to £5,000. The successful applicants are:
- VOICES (£5,000)
- Bath Area Play Project (£2,500)
- Boys in Mind (£2,500)
- 1st Impressions (£1,000)
- Bath Digital Drive (£1,000)
- Moorland Road Community Library (£1,000)
- All Cycle Bath & West (£1,000)
- The Bath Shed (£500)
- Share & Repair (£500)
Bath Building Society CEO, Richard Ingle, said, “As a judge for the annual Awards I’m always blown away by the great work that local charities, community groups and volunteers do in our local community. The Society’s roots in the community are very important to us. This year we have committed to donate 2% of profits back into the community and are pleased that we were able to increase the funding pot for our annual Awards this year.”
Bath Building Society would like to thank Alan Keeling from The Rotary Club of Bath and Claire Wynne Hughes of Quartet Community Foundation for their help in judging the Awards.
