Susan Robinson, Chairman of Judges at the awards, commented, “The Kent Charity Awards are a wonderful way of saying thank you and well done for work that often goes on under the radar.  In 2019 the judges faced an incredibly difficult task of shortlisting the finalists as we had so many great entries.  During our judges visits we were inspired, we laughed and we cried, but overall we came away humbled.  We witnessed so much innovation and collaboration within the Third Sector and throughout these challenging times we saw hope and possibilities.  We are really excited to be moving into our 6th year and look forward to receiving lots of great entries.“
