Volunteers' Week & the South Derbyshire Community Heroes Roll Of Honour 2021
Online
1 June 2021 - 7 June 2021
This year, the traditional South Derbyshire Awards event has been re-shaped into a virtual format, which will focus on the incredible community volunteer response to the pandemic.
It will give local people the opportunity to recognise members of the community, who are not key workers, that have helped them during this challenging time. This could include local businesses or community groups, a friend or family member who has made sure you have your weekly shop or medication, in fact any volunteer in South Derbyshire you would like to thank for making a positive difference to you during this difficult time.
Everyone put forward to be thanked will be mentioned in the Roll of Honour and, where information is provided, receive a certificate and exclusive pin badge. Several short videos will also be made to celebrate the contributions of a selection of Heroes.
Votes of thanks can be submitted at www.southderbyshireawards.com via a simple online form, until midnight on Sunday 16 May.
The Roll of Honour and Community Heroes videos will be displayed on the South Derbyshire Awards website as part of National Volunteers' Week, from the first week in June.
