Who has been your community hero?

RECOGNISE THOSE WHO HAVE STEPPED UP DURING PANDEMIC

- By KAREN ANTCLIFF karen.antcliff@reachplc.com @Antcliffka­ren

IN this extraordin­ary year, one huge positive has been the way in which people and communitie­s have responded to the pandemic.

The anxiety and uncertaint­y of coronaviru­s has, in many instances, brought out the best in people and brought numerous communitie­s closer together.

Natalie Fahy, Editor of The Post and Nottingham­shire Live, said: “We want to recognise those who have gone above and beyond during the pandemic.

“As we head towards the end of 2020, we want to celebrate the very best of our local areas and the people who stepped up when we needed them most.”

We’ve teamed up with Amazon, whose own staff went above and beyond to keep deliveries going through lockdown, to recognise the Covid Heroes in our communitie­s.

Did your local pub set up a takeaway service and drop dinners to isolating pensioners?

Did your neighbour run round picking up medical supplies and food for others?

Did the corner shop go out of their way to help people in need in your community?

Did your local school become a hub for the whole town?

Perhaps your local councillor went above and beyond to support your town, village or area?

Was there an NHS worker who became your hero in Covid?

We want to hear about the Covid Heroes of your community. All we need you to do is fill in the nomination form to put forward a person, organisati­on or group that has made a difference to your life in 2020.

Who do you think deserves recognitio­n in your community? Nominate them today at https://form.jotform.com/2030345588­81357.

We don’t want to pick a winner - they’re all winners as far as we’re concerned - but we will contact as many of your heroes as possible to shine a spotlight on them in December.

So, nominate your Covid Hero and give them the recognitio­n they deserve.
