Building on the success of the Kirkbymoorside Community Awards last year, when we recognised and celebrated contributors from voluntary/charity organisations, membership groups, individuals, and young people all making a positive impact in the community we are so proud of, the Town Council is pleased to announce the nominations process is now open for 2025!
We are looking for nominations this year in three categories:
· The Group Award: voluntary/charity/membership organisation of the year
· The Individual and / or ‘Quiet Contributor’ of the year
· The Young Person of the year (0 – 25 years of age)
and all must be operationally active in the designated geographic area (Kirkbymoorside). The Town Council may also make a discretionary award, for the overall outstanding contribution.
With warm memories of last year’s event as can be seen in the photographs, the celebratory event will take place in Kirkbymoorside on Saturday 27th September at the Memorial Hall when we will welcome the nominees (and limited number of guests) in all categories, the nominators, event sponsors, community representatives, and we will be entertained again by the Kirkbymoorside Town Brass Band. We are also delighted that Angus Ashworth from Ryedale Auctioneers, has agreed to anchor the event for us.
The Town Mayor, Joe Coughlan commented “We are thrilled to be making this an annual event recognising the kindness of our residents making a positive difference to the fabric of the Kirkbymoorside community. We look forward to receiving nominations, and the challenging task of selecting winners!”
The easy-to-complete nominations form and guidance notes are available to download from the Kirkbymoorside Town Council website, or can be collected from the library or the
Home Decorating Centre in Kirkbymoorside. The nominations window is now open until 5th September, so something to think about over the summer and make your nominations.
