There are just a few weeks to go to get your nominations in for this year’s Stars of Suffolk awards.

The annual prizegiving run by Archant Suffolk is returning for its seventh year and will honour the county’s bravest, most dedicated and most caring individuals – the people who make us proud – for their work and actions at a prestigious ceremony later this year.

Every day people in Suffolk will go beyond the call of duty, put themselves in challenging situations to help others and carry out amazing feats with the utmost selflessness.

These are the kind of people who deserve a Stars of Suffolk award.

Now we want you to make sure the person you know to be a real star is nominated in one of the 14 categories open for nominations this year.

From carer of the year and volunteer of the year to awards for bravery and outstanding sporting achievement, the awards will recognise people from all walks of life. There will also be an overall Star of Suffolk award.

Entries must be submitted by October 1 and the form can be found here along with all of last year’s winners.
