Community called on to nominate local heroes for Boston campaign

Boston Borough Council is calling on the community to nominate local heroes for the 2024/2025 Boston Heroes Campaign.

This event honours individuals from diverse backgrounds who have demonstrated exceptional kindness and made significant contributions to the community, either through volunteering or in their personal endeavours.

The award categories include Lifetime Achievement, Group Champion, Individual Champion, and Young Person of the Year 2024/5.

Councillor Emma Cresswell, portfolio holder for communities and people, said: “I have always been impressed by the sheer number of nominations and the overwhelming support this campaign has received in the past years.

“This initiative was launched to foster positivity within our diverse and lively community. Over the years, we’ve observed an outpouring of support for Boston and have seen the immense pride that many Bostonians have for their community.

“At the core of this campaign, we aim to provide the people of Boston with the chance to highlight their unsung heroes who have made a lasting impact on the community—whether through small acts of kindness or life-changing support.

“I urge as many people as possible to participate in nominating. It’s the collaboration and support among individuals, groups, and organisations that make our community. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to be a part of these awards, which are dedicated to celebrating the very best of these efforts.”

Visit https://www.boston.gov.uk/article/28273/Boston-Heroes-2025 to submit your nomination. The deadline for nominations is midnight on Friday 30 May 2025.
