In every corner of Killamarsh, lies a wealth of unsung heroes and community champions who tirelessly dedicate themselves to making our community a better place. These individuals and groups embody the spirit of generosity, compassion, and selflessness that truly make Killamarsh the special place it is. Now, it's time to shine a spotlight on their remarkable contributions with the inaugural Pride of Killamarsh Community Awards.
Organised by Killamarsh Parish Council, these awards aim to celebrate and honour the outstanding efforts of those who go above and beyond to enrich the lives of others in our community. There are three categories for which to nominate:
Group Award: This award recognises the exceptional contributions of voluntary organisations and not-for-profit groups that have made a significant difference in the lives of Killamarsh residents. From local charities to community associations, we want to hear about the groups that are making a real impact.
Individual (18 and Over) Award: Do you know someone who consistently goes out of their way to make a positive difference in Killamarsh? Whether it's through volunteering, organising community events, or simply being a pillar of support for others, nominate them for this individual award and let their efforts be celebrated.
Individual (17 and Under) Award: Young people are the future of our community, and many of them are already making a big difference in Killamarsh. Whether it's through volunteering, fundraising, or showing exceptional kindness and leadership, we want to hear about the inspiring young individuals who are making a difference in our village.
Nominations for the Pride of Killamarsh Community Awards open on June 5th and close on August 5th.
We encourage all Killamarsh residents to take this opportunity to recognise and celebrate the remarkable contributions of their fellow community members. Nomination forms will be available from the Parish Office and its website.
The prize-giving ceremony will be held at the Parish Suites in late September, where the winners of each category will be announced and celebrated. It promises to be a heartwarming occasion, filled with gratitude and appreciation for all those who make Killamarsh the vibrant and caring community that it is.
Killamarsh Parish Council sincerely hopes that residents will embrace the opportunity to nominate deserving individuals and groups for the Pride of Killamarsh Community Awards. Let's come together to give these unsung heroes the recognition they truly deserve for their invaluable contributions to our village. After all, it's the people of Killamarsh who truly make it a place we're proud to call home.
