“There are so many people in Erewash who work hard to support our local area, and they deserve to be recognised,” said mayor of Erewash, Cllr Harry Atkinson.
“There are lots of ways that people build up our borough, so we have a range of categories representing culture, the environment, younger residents and more.
“These awards are a way for us to say thank you to standout members of our community for all their effort, so please let us know who has made a real difference to you, so we can lift them up in return.”
