The British Heart Foundation (BHF) is launching their Heart Hero Awards 2020 and is calling for people across the South West to nominate their heart hero.
The awards recognise the different ways people are helping beat heartbreak from heart and circulatory disease. This could be through fundraising, volunteering or helping patients and their families.
There are three categories:
The Healthcare Hero award will recognise a person working in a healthcare setting who has made a special effort to make a difference to the life of a heart patient or their family.
The Young Heart Hero award will go to an exceptional person under 18 years who has done something amazing for the BHF and is a source of inspiration to others.
The Inspiration award will recognise a person who inspires others through their determination and dedication. Whether through fundraising efforts, taking part in a physical challenge, organising an event, or volunteering.
Nominations are open until February 29 with the winners announced at an awards dinner in London in September.To make a nomination go to https://www.bhf.org.uk/what-we-do/in-your-area/heart-hero-awards/nomination-form
