Award Categories

Who can nominate people for awards?

The Lord Mayor Award is for individuals or organisations that live, work or are based in Sheffield. Anyone can make a nomination, as long as they're not a relative or partner of the nominee or nominees. You can nominate in six categories. 

There are no limits to how many people you nominate in each category. Visit the different award category pages to find out what the judges will be looking for in nominations (criteria for judging).
