Teesside Heroes

The Teesside Charity is determined to shout about our local community champions – the unsung heroes who do lots of work in the community without fanfare or financial reward.

Our monthly Teesside Hero awards are all about recognising those community superstars whilst helping the charity distribute much-needed funds to truly worthwhile causes across the area. Each Teesside Hero receives £1,000 for a local cause of their choice – plus a gleaming trophy.

Who can be nominated?

To be nominated for a Teesside Hero award you must live within the councils of Middlesbrough, Hartlepool, Redcar and Cleveland, Stockton On Tees and now Darlington too and do good for the community without monetary compensation.

Who can nominate someone for a Teesside Hero award?

Anyone can nominate someone for a Teesside Hero award, you do not need to hold a specific job title or work in a specific field.

For more information or support, please contact info@teessidecharity.org.uk.
