The deadline to nominate your heroes for a glitzy community award is midnight tomorrow.

We have been sharing the news with you that the Stars of Suffolk Awards are coming to our county soon.

These are awards that aim to shine a light on those working behind the scenes, quietly doing good in our county and making Suffolk the wonderful place it is. We are determined that these people finally get some recognition for their efforts – and we need your help to do it.

Do you know someone who has devoted themselves to a cause close to their hearts? Or perhaps someone who spends hours of their time volunteering? Or even someone who stepped up and did something brave when it was needed?

The deadline to nominate your hero is midnight on Sunday, and it is as simple as going www.starsofsuffolk.co.uk and filling out the short form.

We have already told you about the eight categories, which you can read about in more detail online.

There is also one more award up for grabs, the Overall Star of Suffolk and Waveney. This is a non-entry award and is chosen by the judges from the category winners. This year, the award is kindly sponsored by MSC.
