Celebrate unsung heroes in your Sheffield community by nominating them for these ten awards

The Shiregreen Community Awards 2020, which are organised by Sanctuary Housing, marks the contributions of Shiregreen residents and volunteers who are dedicated to supporting projects and community groups across the area.

Sanctuary’s neighbourhood partnerships manager, Melanie King, said there are ten awards that people can be nominated for, and she looks forward to seeing who is nominated and why.

“As always when we have previously run the Shiregreen Community Awards, we have a fantastic opportunity to recognise the achievements of residents across the neighbourhood.

“I’m confident that the ten categories on offer mean that the contributions of all unsung heroes in Shiregreen – regardless of age, gender or ability – will be able to be recognised.”

The ten award categories include Volunteer of the Year, Make a Difference award, Health Heroes, Friend of the Year, Community Venue of the Year, What’s your Game? Family Award and Young Achiever of the Year.

Residents can cast nominations online at www.sanctuary-housing.co.uk, with nominations closing on Friday, January 17.

The Shiregreen Community Committee will then judge all entries and decide the winners.

The event is funded by Sanctuary’s Community Investment Fund, supporting projects which benefit Sanctuary residents and their communities.
