“These awards are an opportunity for
the community to recognise and reward those individuals in their midst
who through their own endeavours seek to make their communities a better
place for all to live in.” said Mr Wilson.
“Standing up for what you believe
in can on occasion be a lonely and frustrating experience for individuals
but we are all better off as a consequence and the support of your peers
can provide the necessary encouragement which can be the difference between
that individual pursuing his or her vision against the odds to it’s fruition
or abandoning it”.
“I know from personal experience that
there are many such individuals in my constituency who qualify for such
recognition for their efforts in the voluntary and charitable sectors but
there must be many more not known to me who desrve the nomination.” said
Mr Wilson.
