The Viking FM Awards - in partnership with Quality Solicitors Lockings and Cash For Kids - celebrates the very best that Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire has to offer. These annual awards return on Friday 6th November, raising money for Viking FM's Cash for Kids, with thanks to Lazaat Hotel and Restaurant in Cottingham for their generous support for a second year.

We're looking for people who have achieved above and beyond, fought adversity, stood up for a cause, or inspired their communities.

From those who help put us on the map, to those who work tirelessly to make our region a great place for all to live, the Viking FM Awards aim to recognise and celebrate all that we have to be proud of!
