Do you know someone who has contributed to the community year after year for as long as you can remember?

We want to hear their stories and celebrate their outstanding achievements at the first Hertfordshire Community Awards in Stevenage this September.

The Welwyn Hatfield Times and its sister papers, the Royston Crow, the Comet Series and the Herts Advertiser, want to reward the county’s finest citizens at the Hertfordshire Community Awards 2020 ceremony.

The inaugural Archant-backed celebration is scheduled to take place on Friday, September 25 at the Stevenage Arts and Leisure Centre.

One of the award categories is the Lifetime Achievement.

Sponsored by solicitors HRJ Foreman Laws, this accolade is for someone who has spent their adult life helping others in their community.

When making a nomination please consider the following criteria:

• The sacrifices made to provide level of care.

• Assistance given to other projects or causes.
