Nominations are now open for the 2015 Cheltenham Medal of Honour. The medal recognises the worthwhile voluntary contribution that some of the borough’s local residents have made to their communities.
The nominations are considered by an independent panel and all information is treated on a confidential basis. The award is presented during the Inauguration of the Mayor ceremony which will be held in June.
David Richards won the award last year for services to the community.
Cllr Simon Wheeler, there mayor, says: “Nominating your local hero for this medal is a great way to say thank you publicly for the hard and valuable work they have done. I’d like to urge our residents to think about people they know that deserve this award, and send in their nominations right away.”
For more information on the scheme and a nomination form, contact Jennie Ingram, Cheltenham Medal of Honour Committee, Municipal Offices, Promenade, Cheltenham GL50 9SA, or call 01242 264108.
The closing date for nominations is Friday 20 March 2015.
