Last opportunity to nominate your unsung hero!

Nominations will close on Friday 6 May for Lincolnshire County Council’s Good Citizens Awards 2022.

This is your last opportunity to have your local heroes recognised for their selfless actions and achievements at this year’s awards ceremony.

If you know an individual, pair, or a group who make a real difference to your community, get in touch with your nominations and let us know!

Leader Cllr Martin Hill said: “It’s been a tough time for all of us, and volunteers have played an integral role in supporting our communities during the pandemic.

“Many of us will have experienced their selfless activities or seen the positive impact that they have had, including ensuring that our most vulnerable people have received the support they need.

“There are others who, despite the challenges of the last two years, have worked tirelessly to keep community organisations going, raised funds for charity, organised events and carried on supporting good causes.

“We are looking for individuals and teams of people to be put forward for the following categories – Citizen of the Year, Young Citizen of the Year (aged 21 or below), Community Group of the Year and Couple/Pair of the Year.”

Winners will be invited to have their achievements celebrated at a VIP ceremony at the Lincolnshire Show hosted by Cllr Hill and the council chairman, where they will also be awarded with a framed certificate.

The closing date for entries is Friday 6 May 2022. Make your nominations online by searching for Good Citizens awards at www.lincolnshire.gov.uk.
