Want to be part of theRoyal visit?
NOMINATIONS are still open for our search for unsung heroes to attend a special date with the Queen.
Last week newspapers across Worcestershire set out to find the unsung heroes of our local communities who could join the Queen on her Diamond Jubilee tour of the county.
They have secured agreement with the organisers to reserve about 300 places at Worcester Cathedral to join an invitation-only audience for the visit of Her Majesty on July 11.
Those chosen will join the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh and other dignitaries to watch a special presentation about Worcestershire and will have a grandstand view of her unveiling a plaque to mark the momentous occasion.
Since launching the search, they have received nominations from across the county. They include all sorts of people whose actions have helped the lives of those around them. From charity fundraisers, to volunteers, teachers, carers, neighbours, youth workers, and those who have battled illness, you have been nominating your local heroes for our very special reward.
Buckingham Palace has been keen to ensure that those attending the jubilee celebrations should reflect the whole community, and the best in the community.
There’s still time to nominate your local hero. Just send in their name, address, any contact details you have on the special coupon (which you can download here), along with a ‘citation’ of four or five sentences explaining why you think they are local heroes deserving of royal recognition. You can write your ‘citation’ on a separate piece of plain paper, or email your application to roni.skye@worcesternews.co.uk.
Get your nomination to them at the address printed on the voucher by May 25 in time for us to choose the lucky 300, contact them and make the necessary arrangements.
You can post it, or e-mail it to roni.skye@worcesternews.co.uk
