Just Two Weeks Left to Nominate for the 2026 Heroes Awards

There are now just two weeks remaining to submit nominations for the 2026 Heroes Awards, with entries closing on 19 June.

The awards recognise people who have shown outstanding bravery, kindness, leadership or selflessness, often without expecting recognition. From supporting colleagues through difficult times to stepping up in emergencies or making a lasting difference in their communities, the Heroes Awards celebrate those who go above and beyond for others.

Open to nominations from all sectors and industries, the awards highlight everyday actions that have an extraordinary impact.

The 2026 Heroes Awards ceremony will take place on 30th November at the London Hilton on Park Lane, bringing together finalists, guests and industry leaders to celebrate those whose actions deserve wider recognition.

Winners will be selected by an independent judging panel led by Rich Marshall, Engineering Director at Carnell and host of the Heroes Awards.

Nominate

Rich Marshall said:

“The Heroes Awards are about recognising people who put others first, often without ever expecting acknowledgement. Across our industries and communities, there are countless stories of courage, kindness and leadership that deserve to be celebrated.

“With just two weeks left until nominations close, we encourage everyone to nominate someone who has made a genuine difference.”

Organisers are also encouraging businesses and organisations to promote the awards internally by displaying nomination materials in offices, depots, welfare areas and communal spaces.

Nominations can be submitted by anyone who has witnessed, benefited from or been directly impacted by an act of bravery, kindness, leadership or support.

Unlike many awards programmes, the Heroes Awards do not operate fixed categories, ensuring every deserving act has the opportunity to be recognised.

Organisations may submit multiple nominations.

Entries must be completed using the official online nomination form, with supporting evidence encouraged where possible, including testimonials, photographs or video footage.

Alicia Hibberts, Operations Director at the Heroes Awards, said:

“The Heroes Awards exist to recognise the extraordinary actions carried out by ordinary people every day. Being recognised can have a lasting impact and reminds people just how valued they are.

“We encourage individuals and organisations to make sure deserving nominees are put forward before the deadline.”

With nominations closing on 19 June, organisers are urging anyone considering a submission not to leave it until the last minute.
