In view of the developing situation, together with current advice from Public Health and the government, we have taken the difficult decision to postpone the Mayor’s Civic Dinner until later in the year.
The search is on for this year’s community champion to receive their moment of recognition at our Civic Awards.
The Mayor of Hertsmere, Councillor Alan Plancey, wants to hear about individuals or groups living or working in the community who give up their time to improve the lives and circumstances of Hertsmere residents.
People nominated should have contributed to activities or initiatives which have shown a benefit to the local area and directly involved other community members or colleagues. Nominees should have worked in a voluntary capacity or carried out work which is considered over and above their normal paid employment duties.
Categories for nominations are as follows:
- CIVIC AWARD: Work undertaken for the benefit of the residents of the borough
- THE DAVE RANKIN AWARD: Outstanding contribution to improving community safety across the borough
- YOUTH CIVIC AWARD (UNDER 18): Work undertaken for the benefit of the residents of the borough
To make a nomination, please complete the attached form and return it to: Mayor’s Secretary, Hertsmere Borough Council, Civic Offices, Elstree Way, Borehamwood, Hertfordshire, WD6 1WA or mayors.secretary@hertsmere.gov.uk
The deadline for entries is Friday 31 January. Nominations will be considered by a panel. All winners will be invited to attend a presentation evening at the Hertsmere Civic Dinner on 5 April 2020 at Elstree Studios.
