ORGANISATIONS working to combat homelessness are being called on to enter the 2010 Andy Ludlow Homelessness Awards.

The Awards seek to recognise and reward work that improves services to homeless people, prevents homelessness, or tackles disadvantage caused by homelessness.

They are open to all London-based projects working in the field of homelessness, including those from the voluntary sector, housing and social services departments, NHS trusts, registered social landlords, or a partnership of agencies.

The overall winner will receive £25,000, with £10,000 going to each of the two runners-up and £2,000 going to three other shortlisted projects.

Entries must be in by 5pm on Monday June 21.
