Awards

The Trust believes that positive contributions to the urban environment should be publicly recognised. To that end the Trust sets up a jury every two or three years to assess the contribution to the urban environment made by buildings erected in the past year or years and to recommend where awards should be made.

2025 Awards – nominations now open

Between 31 March and 31 May 2025, the Civic Trust is inviting nominations for projects which have enhanced the urban environment and are deserving of recognition. These must fall within the Dundee City local authority area and have a completion date between 1 June 2023 and 31 May 2025.

Recognition will be given under two categories:

  • New build and retrofit projects of all kinds will be recognised through Dundee Civic Trust’s long-standing Awards and Commendations;
  • Conservation projects will be considered for a special joint award given by Dundee Civic Trust and Dundee Historic Environment Trust.

Please nominate one or more developments for consideration by our panels. Click here to access the application form, complete it and then click on the Download icon at top right. Download it ‘with your changes’; or, if you haven’t completed it yet, you may save the blank form for later. Once you have entered all details of your nomination, email the form back to us as directed. A separate form is required for each nomination.
