During the coronavirus pandemic, we’ve seen the most incredible acts of kindness, bravery and compassion. From our NHS workers on the frontline and those providing essential services to keep us going, to the everyday heroes volunteering in our communities. We want to hear about them. Doctors, nurses, key workers, and all the volunteers who, perhaps without even realising it, have made such a difference to their local neighbourhoods. Scroll down to enter your nomination in the Time & Leisure Community Hero Awards.
Time & Leisure’s Hero Awards recognise and reward the amazing people who have been doing so much to look after our local communities. During the crisis we’ve been covering local Coronavirus news and stories online and our weekly newsletter. We’ve been inspired by people’s heroic work; NHS staff, key workers, mutual aid volunteers and neighbours who have set up and got involved in the inspirational initiatives in our communities. Lucy Kane, Time & Leisure’s publisher and owner said
“I am so excited to launch the Time & Leisure Hero Awards, it is so important to thank those special individuals who have been working tirelessly during the crisis and helping keep our communities safe.”
