Your Heroes Awards 2026 - Help us to honour Your Heroes!

 

The Your Heroes Awards celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2026!

This annual, much-loved Staffordshire event celebrates the amazing, unsung heroes who make significant contributions to their communities within our county.

The awards celebrate the remarkable individuals and groups who make an outstanding difference across Staffordshire.

We emphasise the word Your to highlight that these awards belong to the community – because it is the people of Staffordshire who nominate, recognise and honour their own local heroes. 

Your Heroes is sponsored by Lucideon, Drayton Beaumont, Sempar, Woolcool, PREM Management, Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce, The Potteries Educational Trust, KMF and Shepherd PR – and is organised at University of Staffordshire.

We are also immensely grateful for the support of businesses and organisations including Port Vale FC, Port Vale Foundation, Stoke City FC,  Stoke City Foundation, World of Wedgwood, Ambassador Theatre Group, Stoke-on-Trent City Centre BID, Newcastle-under-Lyme BID, Cross Rhythms City Radio and Alton Towers.

The Your Heroes campaign recognises Children of Courage, Future Stars, Charity Champions, Volunteers, Community Groups, NHS Heroes, Inspirations in Education, Carers, Uniformed Heroes, Individuals and organisations demonstrating Civic Pride and Sporting Icons.
