Paul Barrett of Barretts Kent and the Lord Mayor of Canterbury Keji Moses

Barretts champion revival of our community

East Kent Mind is delighted to announce that Barretts is a headline partner of the Revival Community Awards, a special event dedicated to recognising the individuals, organisations, and initiatives making a real difference in the Canterbury, Whitstable, and Herne Bay area.

Get ready to celebrate the everyday heroes who make our communities stronger. The Revival Community Awards, hosted by East Kent Mind and Revival Food & Mood, celebrate the everyday heroes who make a real difference. From volunteers and sports clubs to charities, schools, local businesses, council teams, and NHS staff, these awards shine a light on those whose dedication and compassion often go unnoticed, quietly improving lives and strengthening communities.

The Team at Barretts Jaguar Land Rover welcomed The Lord Mayor of Canterbury, Keji Moses to celebrate the power of community, photographed alongside Paul Barrett, Managing Director at Barretts Motor Group.

The company is proud to support an initiative that recognises the everyday heroes who make our region a better place to live and work.

Paul Barrett said: “We encourage everyone to get involved, nominate, and help us celebrate those who truly make a difference.

“We’re calling on everyone to nominate the people and groups whose kindness, professionalism, and commitment are supporting the well-being of friends, colleagues, and neighbours. Whether it’s a business leader, a frontline worker, or a volunteer, now is the time to say thank you.”

The event will also introduce the community to Revival Food & Mood, a unique café and wellness hub in the heart of Whitstable, serving breakfast, brunch, and lunch in a welcoming setting. Barretts is proud to stand behind an initiative that champions the heart of our community. We look forward to celebrating those who continue to make Canterbury, Whitstable, and Herne Bay truly extraordinary.

The deadline to submit a nomination is noon on 22 January. Visit www.eastkentmind.org.uk/revivalcommunityawards
