The highly-anticipated Pride of Andover Awards 2022 officially launched on Saturday (June 11).

Many of Andover’s community-minded businesses came together to celebrate the launch of the 2022 Pride of Andover Awards. The launch event, which took place at Andover’s elegant Gin Palace, officially marks the start of the long-standing, well-established event.

The Awards honour Andover’s exceptional unsung heroes, celebrating the inspiring and often selfless actions of the town’s most generous individuals.

Karen Hamilton, chairman of the Pride of Andover Awards committee, said: “2022 marks the 16th year of the Pride of Andover Awards. The generosity our sponsors have shown us has been truly incredible; without the support of our sponsors, we wouldn’t be able to celebrate our town’s unsung heroes.

"The Pride of Andover Team thank you, and look forward to seeing you all at this years event.’’
