They are\u00a0national awards which have been nominated by local community organisation like civic societies, resident&#8217;s group, town and parish councils and other community groups, rather than the industry. They recognise those buildings, places and spaces that are loved by local people. They show that communities will accept new development.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Civic Voice Design Awards\u00a0show that people are willing to welcome the new developments we need when they have been properly consulted and involved and where the quality of design has been of the highest standard.\u00a0\u00a0Deadline for nominations is\u00a014th February 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The application round for entries is currently open and we are asking if you and are proud of developments in your area? If you are, nominate them for a Civic Voice Design Award. Whether it is a restoration of a local church through to a million pound development, we want to hear from you. What makes these awards special is that it is you and your community who apply!<\/p>\n<p>If you have a building, development or project in mind, have a look at our website for further information or contact us on <a href=\"mailto:info@civicvoice.og.uk\">info@civicvoice.org.uk<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It couldn\u2019t be easier to apply.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.civicvoice.org.uk\/get-involved\/designawards\/design-award-2017-application-form\/\" target=\"_blank\">Nominate a scheme<\/a> in your area now<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The IHBC reminds members that submissions for England\u2019s Civic Voice Design Awards closes on 14 February.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14860","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ihbc-newsblog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14860","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=14860"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14860\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14861,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14860\/revisions\/14861"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=14860"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=14860"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=14860"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
