The Roots & WingsCommunity Awards 2026
Celebrating the men who show up — recognising the men whose influence strengthens families and communities across South London.
Across our communities there are men who quietly shape lives through their presence, consistency and care. The Roots & Wings Community Awards were created to celebrate the influence they carry.
Last year more than 250 people attended Roots & Wings to celebrate fathers, families and community leadership.
Why These Awards Matter
Many men contribute to their communities without recognition.
These awards shine a light on the positive influence they bring.
Your vote helps ensure their impact is seen and valued.
