Nominate someone for the Mayor's Community Awards

We're looking for people who have given up their own time to help other people or the community. They may deserve recognition for their supreme effort, strength, bravery or achievement. 

Nominees don't need to be resident within the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames but their efforts need to have benefited the residents of the Royal Borough.

The deadline to nominate someone for this year’s Awards is 5 pm on Thursday 8 February 2024

Nominate someone for the Mayor's Community awards

To submit your nomination by phone, call the Mayor's Office on 07759 717579.

All nominees for the Mayor's Community awards should:

  • not be employed by Kingston Council (as staff awards exist already)
  • be someone who has given up their own time and without prompting and offered to help other people or the community

Awards will not normally be given to individuals who are employed to perform a specific community role. These awards are intended to recognise individuals who give up their own time to help others. Nominations will continue to be considered in exceptional circumstances, particularly if the individual does other voluntary work or satisfies other criteria.

Nominees should also be one or more of the following:

  • someone whose service to the Community is worthy of special recognition
  • someone who deserves recognition for their supreme effort, strength, bravery or achievement
  • someone who has achieved something, which benefits the neighbourhood or even the whole of our borough

Young people

The Mayor would also like to present a special ‘Young Person’ Community Award (to someone under 21). So please also consider nominating young people who may be setting an example to their peers through the voluntary work they undertake. (This excludes community work undertaken as part of the Duke of Edinburgh or other similar programmes). 

Nominate

The deadline for Nominations is 5 pm on Thursday 8 February 2024

The Award Ceremony will take place on Monday 18 March 2024 from 12 noon to 2 pm in the Council Chamber, Guildhall
