Guildford Borough Council asks: “Do you know a person or group that has made a significant difference to our borough?”

It says the Mayor’s Award for Service to the Community recognises individuals, groups and organisations who have gone above and beyond to serve their local community.

Nominations for the 2024 awards open on Monday, January 1. The deadline for nominations is Friday, February 2.

Nominations can be for an individual or an organisation who have done outstanding work in the community to improve the lives of others or foster good relationships.
