DO YOU know any Bude heroes?

The mayor of Bude and Stratton, Bob Willingham, has pushed for a new and exciting event, celebrating those in the Bude community who dedicate much of their time and efforts to ensure things such as local projects, clubs and the environment thrive.

To celebrate the dedication of volunteers that help the Bude community and make it the fantastic place it is, the 2018 Bude Heroes Awards is to take place later in the year.

On the Mayor of Bude-Stratton Town Council Facebook page, Cllr Willingham wrote: “If you know somebody who is tireless in their efforts, that does it all for non-profit and deserves to be recognised, please write in to nominate them.”

Nominees could be young or old, from the emergency services, hospital support, charity organisations, animal welfare, community groups and much, much more. The most outstanding examples will be selected and an event to celebrate them will be held later in the year.

Nominations should be sent to [email protected] or to Heroes of Bude, Bude-Stratton Town Council, The Parkhouse Centre, Ergue-Gaberic Way, Bude, EX23 8LD.
