Come back soon to nominate. The nomination window opens Autumn 2026.

Nominations

Nominate someone.

Anyone can nominate someone. You can nominate a person you know personally. Nominations go to a local Community Foundation, not to the programme centrally.

Who are you nominating?

If you know it. Leave blank if not.

Tell us about them.

Be specific. A particular day, a particular habit, a particular detail is better than a general summary. It is fine to nominate someone you know personally. A minimum of 20 words is required to submit.

Approximate is fine.

About you.

One sentence is enough.

Your nomination will be shared with the Community Foundation in the nominee’s community. They will use it as part of their local selection process. Your contact details will not be shared publicly. You may hear from the Community Foundation if they need more information.

What happens next

  1. Your nomination goes to the local Community Foundation.

  2. They review it as part of their selection process.

  3. Local honourees are announced by their Community Foundation.

  4. A small number are considered for national recognition by an independent committee.
