A Decade of MTM Awards: Celebrating Excellence and Diversity
Inaugurated on a memorable Saturday, December 1st, at the prestigious University of the West of England, the MTM Awards embarked on a journey that transcended cultural boundaries, bringing together diverse communities from the South West and South Wales. The inaugural event witnessed the presence of the newly elected 1st Mayor of Bristol, George Ferguson, who not only played a significant role as the chief guest but also forged a lasting bond with the MTM Awards.
Over the 11 amazing years, George’s unwavering support has elevated him to the role of a dedicated advocate, attending most Glittering Gala Award Evenings since 2012. His consistent presence has solidified the awards’ impact and importance in the community, marking numerous achievements and milestones.
Dedicated to supporting charities since 2012, both in the United Kingdom and abroad, MTM Awards has become a symbol of recognition and celebration. Beyond acknowledging talent, the awards provide crucial opportunities for emerging artists, fostering a sense of pride in those who grace the stage.
In the exceptional year 2021, named the “Year of the Green Carpet,” uncertainties around UK restrictions prevented the traditional awards ceremony. Despite this, the MTM Awards took the opportunity to replace the customary Red Carpet with a symbolic green one, paying homage to the South West’s commitment to environmental consciousness.
The Glittering Gala Awards ceremony, albeit unique in its format, serves as a platform for networking and rejoicing with esteemed business and community leaders. The same year marked the initiation of two impactful projects: the Period Poverty Action Projects and the Malaika Foundation MTM. The former aimed to raise awareness and distribute sanitary towels in Lamu, Kenya, working in partnership with HURIS Foundation, Mombasa, Kenya, while the latter, led by director Junior Sheikh, focused on providing educational support for children in impoverished communities.
Generous support and donations have been instrumental in realising the mission of “Education For All” and ensuring “Free Sanitary Pads For All!”
MTM Awards further stands out with its unique Road Show, going On The Road to present finalist certificates and connect with nominees, the only awards organisation of it’s kind in the UK to go On The Road.
As MTM Awards extends heartfelt gratitude for phenomenal support over the past decade, it eagerly anticipates many more years of celebrating excellence and diversity. With the South-West of England at the heart of its focus, MTM Awards will continue to be a beacon of celebration, honoring the rich tapestry of talents and cultures that make our communities thrive in the United Kingdom and across international waters.
MTM AWARDS "M A D" Making A Difference!
“Diversity is a Beautiful Thing: Celebrating 11 Amazing Years with MTM Awards”
For over a decade, MTM Awards, a brainchild of Mast The Magazine—a local publication serving diverse communities since 2009—has stood as the pioneering platform of its kind in the United Kingdom. Throughout these 11 incredible years, MTM Awards have played a pivotal role in acknowledging and applauding the remarkable contributions of individuals, businesses, and organizations that embody the spirit of diversity and excellence in their respective regions.
The commitment to showcasing the achievements and impact of various diverse communities has left a significant and lasting impression on society. As MTM Awards enter a new phase, they are poised for further growth, recognition, and appreciation, continuing to celebrate the incredible tapestry of talents, cultures, and innovations within their reach.
Each passing year has seen a continued effort to elevate the voices and accomplishments of those making a positive difference in the community, establishing a legacy of pride and unity.
In recognition of World Kiswahili Day, the MTM Awards have marked this milestone with prestigious celebrations over the years. In 2022, the event was held at The River Room of the House of Lords, Westminster, hosted by Baroness Sandy Verma. The celebrations continued in 2023 and 2024, with Lord Boateng as host, courtesy of the Lord Speaker of the House of Lords. The festivities culminated in the launch of the Sema Jambo Glittering Gala Evening at Westminster Central Hall, London. The event featured distinguished guests, including the High Sheriff of Wiltshire, Pradeep Bhardwaj, the Acting High Commissioner of Seychelles in London, Ms. Patsy Moustache, and the Charge d’Affaires of Burundi in London, Mr. Jean Pierre Uwitonze.
The World Kiswahili Day London 2024 was celebrated at the London Marriott Hotel Grosvenor Square, with the High Commissioner of Tanzania to the UK, H.E. Balozi Mbelwa Kairuki, serving as the chief guest. For more information, visit semajambo.co.uk.

With a bright future ahead, MTM continues to inspire and uplift, fostering an environment of inclusivity and admiration for the achievements of all.
The United Kingdom, known for its multicultural diversity, finds a vibrant reflection in the MTM Awards. Whether in local communities or at the national level, the awards showcase the richness of diverse businesses and community groups, pushing boundaries and providing nominees with an extraordinary platform to showcase their excellence and achievements.
Director Junior Sheikh emphasizes the importance of MTM Awards, stating, “The awards provide a platform for our rich and diverse ethnic communities to showcase their achievements. They create a space where business and communities come together and share their knowledge and expertise, expanding their networks across the South West, nationally, and internationally.”
MTM Awards stand tall, celebrating 11 years of bringing diverse communities together, embodying the beauty that diversity brings to the United Kingdom.
