  • An Introduction to the High Sheriff of Cumbria's Special Recognition
    An Introduction to the High Sheriff of Cumbria’s Special Recognition Awards The High Sheriff of Cumbria has launched a new Special Recognition Award to honour volunteers and individuals going above and beyond in their work, who give outstanding support to others during the Covid-19 pandemic. Covid-19 is the biggest crisis of our generation and has brought about so many difficult challenges within our Cumbrian communities. High Sheriff of Cumbria, Julie Barton said that, “each day I hear stories of volunteers and individuals who give so much to selflessly support their fellow Cumbrians at this time. Their acts of kindness, thoughtfulness, compassion and neighbourliness are so often directed at complete strangers. I want to recognise, thank and celebrate their exceptional contributions during the current pandemic. The theme for my year in Office as High Sheriff of Cumbria is tackling social isolation and loneliness. I would particularly welcome nominations for those who are exceptional in the ways they help others to feel or be less lonely during the current crisis.” Anyone can nominate a volunteer or voluntary group or individual they feel deserves their amazing acts of kindness and generosity to be uniquely acknowledged and thanked. The nomination form is quick and straightforward to complete. Nominations will be considered by a panel. Successful nominees will receive a personal certificate and letter of thanks from the High Sheriff of Cumbria in appreciation for their outstanding contribution. The High Sheriff of Cumbria Special Recognition Awards Nomination Form NOMINATION OF VOLUNTEER/VOLUNTARY GROUP/INDIVIDUAL for their exceptional contribution to their community in Cumbria during the Covid-19 Pandemic in 2020.
