In last month’s issue we featured the brilliant work going on around the county by the winners of the High Sheriff’s Community Awards.

After six months of searching and interviewing, the ceremony finally took place at Winchester’s Great Hall and we were there to celebrate and reward those that have gone above and beyond expectations to help support their local towns and villages.

It was a truly inspirational evening that highlighted just how community spirited our county really is. There were representatives from all corners of Hampshire and a broad range of services and individuals that had all been nominated for an award.
