Heroes come in all forms and sometimes it is the small things people do which make a huge difference to those around them.

- A young man who helps young people to overcome their difficulties while struggling with disabilities himself
- People who give their own time to local projects from running sessions for young and old, to helping with admin and putting together numerous applications which enable lots of great work happening in Charnwood
