Across Suffolk there are thousands of people involved in good causes who deserve to be formally recognised with a National Honour.  You can nominate anyone for an Honour, but only those who have carried out exceptional service will be awarded one.  Before putting someone forward, consider if they have achieved the following:

  • Made a real impact in their community
  • Exemplified the very best sustained voluntary service
  • Changed things for the better
  • Improved the lives of those less able to help themselves.

Help is at hand with your nomination by emailing [email protected].  To find the nomination form, please visit www.gov.uk/honours.  Remember, do not tell the person you are nominating, it must be a surprise!
