NWLDC, along with many others across the country, was formed on 7 February 1974 with the passing of the Local Government Act 1974.
Legacy awards
To mark this occasion, our councillors have been asked to nominate people, groups, charities or businesses in their wards to be recognised for their contribution to our communities.
We hope to find a range of people and organisations who make up the fabric of North West Leicestershire – so we can celebrate them!
All nominees will be invited to a special 'thank you' event early next year.
These legacy awards will now run every year, with a winner being announced at each Annual Council as a way to continue celebrating and promoting the good work that people do in our communities.
If you know of someone in your community who deserves to be recognised, please contact your local councillor.
