The Community Awards are part of Belfast Harbour’s ongoing commitment to being a socially responsible port, and building partnerships with organisations which support communities, the environment and the development of employability and skills.

Hear from previous Community Awards beneficiary, Eastside Greenways about the support they received from Belfast Harbour to deliver an outdoor education programme for local schools, and their experience of applying for the Community Awards.

“The Community Award was really easy to apply for. I would definitely recommend it to anyone… the team are really supportive if you have any questions that you need to ask.”
