The NEON Awards celebrates the transformative power that HE can have and recognises key achievements in the widening access sector.
The success of an organisation like NEON is judged entirely by the success of the learners its members serve. Through the NEON Awards we provide the platform to celebrate the success of these learners, and the contribution that our members are making to it. The NEON Awards are a key part of the work we do. The transformative power that HE can have on the lives of its learners is best captured by individual stories and it is these that the awards aim to share.
The seventh annual NEON Awards is taking place on Thursday 14 May 2020 at the Palace of Westminster. The event is kindly being supported by Michelle Donelan MP, Minister of State for Universities.
