Civic Trust Awards are given to outstanding examples of architecture
and environmental design and are unique in that they take into account
the benefit each project brings to its local area as well as considering
the quality of its design.
The 2003 Civic Trust Awards cover the UK's countryside
and county towns. The winners were announced on 3 April 2003 at
the Imperial War Museum North in Salford and entry forms for the
2004 Awards will be available in the summer of 2003.
Categories
The Civic Trust gives four categories of award:
Special Awards — are given
to projects that are outstanding in a particular way, and are sponsored
by a variety of organisations. Winners of Special Awards receive
certificates and a plaque.
Awards — are given to projects that
reach the highest standards in terms of both their design and their
contribution to their environment or community. Winners of Civic
Trust Awards receive a certificate and a plaque for permanent display
on the award-winning site.
Commendations — are given to projects
that are of an extremely high standard, but not quite worthy of
an award. Winners receive a certificate.
Mentions — are given to projects that
bring a notable social, cultural or economic benefit to their communities.
Winners receive a certificate.
