NOMINATIONS are now open for the Wokingham Town Council Civic Awards.

The awards celebrate organisations and people of all ages who have made an exceptional contribution to the town.

The council is looking for those who have worked to make Wokingham welcoming and inclusive, provided exceptional service to their family or community and added to the cultural life of the town.

This year the council is also searching for those who have found ways to make the town more environmentally friendly and sustainable.

An official ceremony will take place on Friday, January 20, next year when Cllr Maria Gee, Wokingham town mayor, will present awards to the successful nominees.

Cllr Gee said: “I will be honoured to meet with those people who have been nominated to receive an award, I have met so many people in Wokingham who undertake such valuable voluntary work.
