In celebration of Hounslow residents, community groups and businesses the Council is hosting a 'One Hounslow Community Awards' ceremony.

Awards will be given to members of the community who have been recognised for their contribution and achievements over the past year.

The event will take place in October at Hounslow House where winners will receive a certificate and trophy.

Hounslow Council are encouraging nominations from across the borough.

Councillor Hanif Khan, Cabinet Member for Transport and One Hounslow, said: "We want to say a proper thank you for all the outstanding contributions and hear from people across Hounslow about the people who inspire them. 

"We encourage all of our partners, community and faith groups, and businesses to promote the awards and get nominations for those who have made a real difference this year."

Nominations are currently open and will close September 10.

The nominations do not need to be linked to the coronavirus pandemic, however there is a Covid Hero prize, a one-off award for someone who has gone the extra mile to help others during the pandemic in their community.

The full list of awards are : Reaching Potential Award, Building Trust Award, Green Innovation Award, Cleaner, Greener Champion, Community Heart Award, Community Together Award, Social Enterprise Award, Covid Hero and Young Leader.
