Do you know any ex-service personnel? Currently serving personnel? Or veterans from any campaign?
Here at Sporting Force, we’re asking for you to nominate your local hero within the ‘DL’ postcode, so we can give them the recognition they deserve. We will be choosing one a month to appreciate their story and make everyone aware there are heroes locally. During that person’s month, we will display pictures, their medals, and stories around their military career.
We will have their story on display at the Veterans Community Hub in Newton Aycliffe where the family can attend and honour their nominee. They can be great grandparents to someone who is still alive but are held as a hero in the eyes of the nominator.
Please email: shannon@sportingforce.org with who you are nominating, the reason why you’re putting them forward and your contact details, so we can get in touch with you to find out a bit more information!
“As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. To those in uniform serving today and to those who have served in the past, we honour you today and every day”
