The Jerusalem Awards - original engaging Christian broadcasting.

In all categories, the Jerusalem Awards honours programmes that increase the understanding of Christianity, reaching as wide an audience as possible. Programmes are not required to be "religious" but must promote Christian beliefs. Programmes must be produced in the UK and transmitted either by radio or on the internet. We can't accept entries that are made for TV, even if they also appear online.

Programmes can be entered in one category only. Eligible programmes will be automatically entered for the Under 25 and Innovation categories. Please choose the category you feel is most suitable for your entry.

Any compilation must not include programmes entered separately into other categories.

We reserve the right to transfer an entry to a different category. Should this occur, you will be notified.

Good Friday - (£2,000) - for audio programmes demonstrating the Good Friday message. Must be broadcast on Good Friday (6 April 2012).
