The shortlists for the Surrey Heath Sports Awards 2024 have been announced.
The awards celebrate the achievements of local coaches, volunteers, athletes and community groups, who have gone above and beyond in their performances, dedication and commitment to sport and physical activity.
This year we have a new 'Promoting Inclusion in Sport' award, recognising those who make it their mission to ensure sport and physical activity are open to all in our community.
Congratulations to everyone shortlisted – the winners will be announced on 24 October at a ceremony in the Council Chamber.
