Whanganui District Council has put out a renewed call for nominations for the city's Community Awards, and extended nominations because of Covid-19.
The council is on the hunt for Whanganui's local heroes, recognising community members involved in environmental, social, arts, culture and heritage initiatives.
The council is also looking for nominations for individuals, organisations and young people in particular.
Mayor Hamish McDouall said the awards were a fantastic opportunity to recognise the hard work of leaders in the community.
"These awards are an opportunity to recognise Whanganui individuals and organisations who have made a difference in a year where our community has had to face many challenges," McDouall said.
