COMMUNITY heroes have a chance to be nominated for an award by the very people whose lives they have made a difference to.

Show appreciation for someone in Brent who has made a difference to you or your neighbourhood or your community by nominating them for a Community Champions Award, which opened for applications on January 1.

The annual awards, hosted by the council, are now open for nominations and will run until March 3 and are presented in May at the council's Annual Meeting.

Last year 25 people from all walks of life were nominated for an award.
