As Bro Radio celebrates 15 years of serving the Vale of Glamorgan, we're bringing back our Community Awards to celebrate everything great about living, working and visiting the County we serve.

Across 11 categories, we'll be recognising the best of business, community, sport, volunteering and individuals from across the Vale of Glamorgan, as nominated by the local community.

Each of our finalists will be recognised at a black-tie event taking place at Penarth Pier Pavilion on Friday 7th June 2024.

Bro Radio's Community Awards are sponsored by Chris Davies Estate Agents, the Vale's largest independent estate agent, helping people to move home since 1989. Find out more at www.chris-davies.co.uk

The awards have been made possible, through the support of our category sponsors CJCH Solicitors, Fun Harbour, Goodsheds, Mack Events, Ogi, The Big Fresh Catering Company, Thornton Travel, TL Computer Systems and Specsavers Barry.
