CORSHAM Town Council is encouraging residents to nominate unsung heroes, who are putting hours of work into the community, for this year's Community Awards.

The awards ceremony, which will be held at the Annual Town Meeting on Thursday, April 6, will honour the many volunteers and leaders in Corsham striving to make the town a better place.

Town chairman Councillor Ruth Hopkinson said: "We want to know about our unsung heroes and find our about the work they do to improve the lives of others, whether this is volunteering with youth groups, helping with a gardening project or helping coach a local sports team - the possibilities are endless.

"There are many people out there doing valued work in our community and we need to hear about them."

Nomination forms, which can be downloaded from www.corsham.gov.uk or picked up from the Town Hall, must be returned by Friday, March 3.
