Foreword by the Wimbledon Guardian
Wimbledon Times: Nick Hitchens I have been very proud to champion the amazing work that members of the Merton community do for the borough.

Almost every day at the Wimbledon Guardian, we hear about people working tirelessly, and often without recognition, to improve the lives of others, raise money for charity or go out of their way to help people less fortunate than themselves.

This unsung army of local heroes deserve recognition for what they do, which is why the Merton Community Awards are so important.

This is our fourth annual awards since launching in 2013 in partnership with the council. So if you know someone who is making a contribution to your community and deserves recognition, please nominate them for an award now.
