MAYOR Derek Benfield (Lab, Covingham and Nythe) is on the search for Swindon's unsung sporting heroes.
The Swindon Town FC season ticket holder wants to honour someone who the community feels has made an extraordinary effort in sport with a Sporting Achievement Award.
Although there are no specific categories the nominee could be someone who has represented the town, made a vast improvement in their field, coaches or teaches sport or has run the marathon for a good cause.
"Over the past two mayoral years we have seen many deserving people receive their citizen awards. I hope this inspires people to nominate someone who is deserving of the next citizen award," Derek said.
The closing date for nominations is January 8. To make a nomination contact mayor's secretary Carole Deamer at the Civic Offices, Euclid Street, Swindon, or e-mail mayor@Swindon.gov.uk
