Community heroes who have gone out of their way to help a north Norfolk town are set to be honoured with a new award.

Stalham Town Council has set up a Community Awards scheme with certificates for people who have made a positive contribution to the town.

The first set of nominations are to be considered in private by the town council’s general purpose committee, with the final winner to be agreed at a full council meeting in December.

Nominations can be made to the town clerk at Hillcrest, Yarmouth Road, Stalham, or via stalham towncouncil@btinternet.com
