Michael Heaver - for his tireless work in the fight against the evils of the European Union;

Ben Harris-Quinney – for his efforts in promoting Latin American conservativism and for proving that not everyone in the Bow Group is a self-serving careerist;

Raheem Kassam - for his outstanding work on Student Rights and for the Henry Jackson Society, highlighting the double standards in academia;

Sara Scarlett - for her cross-party work with the Cato institute and for Liberal Vision;

Sam Westrop- for his work with The Freedom Association and the Institute for Middle Eastern Democracy

The winner of The Dolphin Award will be announced on Friday 10th December
