Members of Buriton's Parish Plan team travelled to London in March - and came home with the top prize in a competition across all counties in the South East of England.
The judges loved the way that the 'Village Voice' project has led to so many new initiatives in the parish - tackling social, economic and environmental issues.
The range and depth of community involvement in the project was also praised - leading to more and more volunteers for new initiatives.
It is hoped that a home can be found for the special glass trophy in the village hall so that everyone can see it. The award is dedicated to the whole community who make the parish of Buriton such a special place to live.
