UK Catalyst awards - call for mobile entries - deadline 20th June

The UK Catalyst Awards (http://ukcatalystawards.com/) are a new national competition for the community use of social technology. The deadline for entries is FRIDAY 20TH JUNE 5PM.

The idea driving Catalyst is that interesting things are happening as social technology meets social need, and they’re using a high profile awards as a way to surface the best initiatives and inspire more to happen. You can see a clip of Phil Hope, Minister for the Third Sector, waxing lyrical about the awards at:

There’s been a groundswell of interest and they’ve had nearly 100 entries, but hardly any of them with a mobile component, even though they’ve defined social technology as web + mobile + gaming.

So here’s the challenge, help to prove the power of mobile to have a pro-social impact by pointing relevant projects at the entry form at http://ukcatalystawards.com/enter.aspx, or drop them a line at dan@makeyourmark.org.uk.
