My Local Hero is the centrepiece awards event that showcases and celebrates the incredible efforts of ordinary, everyday people from all over our 17 news patches, whose dedication to make their communities better for everyone is as inspirational as it is humbling.

We are thrilled to officially announce the return of this empowering and emotionally charged black-tie evening, to be held at The Grove Hotel in Watford, on Saturday, November 16, 2024.

All profits go towards local charities.

We are delighted to announce an incredible array of supporters and sponsors on board, and are still welcoming contributions from companies and individuals who wish to align themselves with arguably the south’s most important celebration of community commitment.
