Celebrating Wealden Heroes

Nus Ghani, MP for Wealden, is launching the ‘Wealden Hero Award’ to celebrate the heroic efforts of Wealden residents throughout the coronavirus crisis.

Covid-19 is the most profound societal, economic and public health challenge since the Second World War. Nus Ghani is launching the Wealden Hero Award to extend her thanks and gratitude to Wealden residents for their efforts to overcome this challenge and to celebrate the many acts of kindness and community spirit throughout the crisis.

Nus is encouraging her constituents to nominate a fellow Wealden resident, who has helped them, their family or the community during the pandemic, whether by volunteering to help the vulnerable, setting up local volunteer networks, volunteering for the NHS, returning to work on the front line or in any other invaluable way, to be recognised for their extraordinary efforts.

To nominate someone for the award, please share your story at: www.nusghani.org.uk/wealden-heroes 

Nus Ghani said: “I cannot thank Wealden residents enough for their collective efforts over the last few months to fight the pandemic. I am very grateful for all they have done in helping us to reach the stage where lockdown measures can be relaxed, and our life can begin to regain a sense of normality.”

“I know that there are many people in Wealden who have made personal sacrifices to help others. These individuals are our ‘invisible’ heroes and it is important they get the recognition they deserve. I would like to highlight the extraordinary work of Wealden Heroes to the wider community and celebrate their achievements in the constituency.”
