Over 21,000 nominations were received this year paying tribute to inspirational individuals and groups nationwide that have dedicated their lives to enhancing the equality agenda.

“I am over the moon for all the hard work that everyone has put into achieving this accolade” said Ram Kalyan “Kelly” Project and station manager of Unity 101 Community Radio. 

The Hurlingham Club, London will play host to the prestigious black-tie event on September 26th, to honour the outstanding achievements of grass-roots communities nationwide. Lloyds Banking group, which operates the UK's largest retail bank, international accountants PwC, media giants Sky, and the Security Service (MI5) will be amongst sponsors backing the Best of British diversity at the UK's Largest Diversity Awards.

I have witnessed the awards go from strength to strength and I am always truly taken back by the humbling and uplifting stories of all the nominees and award winners.'

The awards have gained a mass of celebrity support from the likes of Stephen Fry, Brian Blessed and singing sensation Misha B. BAFTA award winning actor, Adam Deacon added his support: 'The National Diversity Awards exceed in bringing people from all walks of life together. Their ability to highlight positive role models and community organisations from under represented backgrounds is so necessary in the fight for social justice'.

Face Equality Campaigner, James Partridge OBE, ground-breaking entrepreneur Jessica Huie and grass-roots breakaway group Birmingham LGBT were amongst last year's Winners.

Paul Sesay, founder of the NDA’s said; ‘The quality and quantity of nominees this year has been exceptional. I would like to wish all short-listed nominees the very best of luck, and we look forward to meeting you on the night of the ceremony.
