TODAY is the last chance for people in County Durham to say thank-you to local volunteers.
Nominations for a Thank You From County Durham Award, an initiative by Durham County Council to reward volunteers in the area, close tomorrow.
Awards will be presented to an individual and a group at Whitworth Hall in Spennymoor on June 19.
Durham County Council Leader Ken Manton said: "We want people to look in their workplace, street, village or town for people who are working to improve what they can and where they can, and nominate them for this award.
"As well as receiving a Thank You From County Durham certificate, they will be entered into a draw to win £500 to contribute to a voluntary or community project of their choice that improves the quality of life for people in the county."
Nominations can be made on the website www.county durhampartnership.co.uk, or by calling 0191-383 4964.
