Nominate a local group for the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service

Shipston Town Council has been asked to nominate a group or groups for the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service.

The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service is an annual award made to recognise and reward excellence in voluntary activities carried out by groups in the community.

The award was announced in 2002 as part of celebrations for The Queen’s Golden Jubilee, and was first known as The Queen’s Golden Jubilee Award.

It is given for outstanding achievement by groups of volunteers who regularly devote their time to helping others in the community, improving the quality of life and opportunity for others and providing an outstanding service.

Who do you think the Town Council should nominate? Let us know – and remember it has to be a group of two or more people.
