Time is running out to nominate an extraordinary person you know in the Harrogate district to get the recognition they deserve.
The Your Harrogate Local Hero Awards shine a light on the selfless, dedicated and inspirational people living and working in the Harrogate district.
Set to be held for a third year, the ceremony will be a glamorous event at Rudding Park Hotel on Friday 25th October 2024.
It’s all thanks to headline sponsors O’Connor Chiropractic and Vida Healthcare.
Your Harrogate Content Director and Presenter Nick Hancock said:
“There are some amazing people living and working in the Harrogate district and the Local Hero awards celebrates and thanks those superstars!
“Last year we had a record number of nominations from all over Harrogate, Ripon and Knaresborough, so of course this year we’d like to beat that.
"Time is running out, so please nominate someone that deserves recognition and let us celebrate them together!"
Do you know someone that needs recognition? Someone who gives their time to others, works tirelessly, has achieved something huge or is an unsung hero?
Nominate them now and give them the recognition they deserve but never ask for.
