AN appeal for last minute nominations for a borough's Community Volunteer Awards 2022 has gone out.

The deadline is a week on Friday.

Donna Talbot of Blackburn with Darwen Community CVS said: "It is only days before nominations close.

"Is your organisation supported by many wonderful volunteers? Do they deserve to be recognised for their contribution to Blackburn with Darwen?

"Do you have wonderful neighbours who make your local community a better place?

"Do you know a local organisation that supports your charity? Your local community?

"If so, don’t hesitate nominate them today.

"We have a number of categories to choose from, you can nominate individuals or groups and you can also nominate for a number of categories.

"All winners will be announced at a special evening of celebration on Thursday November 3 at King Georges Hall.

"Everyone nominated will receive a signed certificate, all shortlisted nominees will receive an invitation to the ceremony, and all winners will receive a trophy."
