Tessa Wray, HEY Smile Head of Partnerships and Development, said: “One of the nicest parts of the preparations for the awards is when nominations begin to come in.

“We read many stories of achievement, of lives that have been changed, and of how communities are shaped.

“To us, the focus of the event is a celebration of everyone who volunteers, not just the award winners. We are grateful to Smile’s friends in the community who support the event, by sponsoring categories and the event itself.
