The British Citizen Award BCA
OPEN for Nominations
JANUARY 2026
Now, more than ever, we need to put the unity back into community, and BCA medalists personify this and have done so for the past 10 years. This unique recognition amplifies their good causes to create a virtuous circle.
The 26 recipients, who between them have committed a combined total of 226 years to their causes, were responsible for positively impacting no fewer than 470,000 people’s lives, and between them are responsible for raising over £1.5million. Congratulations to each and every Medalist and welcome to the BCA Family!

The CEO Award BCAs
CEO AWARD
Do you want to recognise individuals in your workplace community for exceeding expectations, for going the extra mile, for helping others to excel, or perhaps for their work in the community, volunteering or fundraising? Well, if so, we have an exciting opportunity which gives you access to recognising them with the most prestigious civil accolade in existence.
Through partnering with The People’s Honours, CEOs can now recommend people in their organisation for a Medal of Honour through our CEO Award.
