The People’s Honours…a legacy


Putting UNITY back into Community

Any individual can be nominated for The British Citizen Award – BCA or The British Citizen Youth Award – BCyA (18 and under only) provided that they have had a meaningful impact on those around them. Nominees come from all corners of the UK, all cultural backgrounds, and from all sectors of the community. The defining common aspect amongst nominees is that they have made life better for those around them.

Nominations are free and all successful applicants are invited to a presentation day at the Palace of Westminster in London. Those who receive a BCA Medal will also be encouraged to use the post nominal BCA, thus enabling them to promote their achievement in perpetuity – see FAQ’s and Guidance Notes 

Those recognised with a KBE, OBE or MBE are ineligible to be considered for a BCA. Those with a BME or King’s Award are eligible. Those awarded a BCA are not exempt from the King’s Honours system.
