Charnwood Community Heroes awards, run by Charnwood Borough Council, are a chance to thank local people who have carried out a good deed – no matter how small or large – in our community.

It could be someone who has helped a neighbour, raised funds, looked at their neighbourhood or is always there for others.

The Charnwood Community Heroes event took place on Saturday, 28 September 2024 at Burleigh Court in Loughborough.

The event celebrated the work of over 30 community heroes from Charnwood and contained a special new category to mark 50 years of Charnwood.
