Nominations are now open to honour an outstanding woman whose volunteer work and effort has positive impact on the Chinese community.

This is your chance to nominate someone you know, whom we would like to share their remarkable story and thank them for their contribution.

Chinese Information and Advice Centre Chairman Mr Edmond Yeo JP relayed that it is difficult to establish a harmonious Chinese community without the hard work of the dedicated volunteers. The significance of setting up this award is to allow the community to appreciate the efforts of these behind-the-scenes heroines, and also to encourage more people to participate in volunteer services and bring a positive impact to the community.

Mr Yeo called on people from all walks of life to nominate women around so that they can share their extraordinary stories and thank them for their contributions to the Chinese communities in UK.

Nomination criteria:

– Nominees must have legal right of abode in the UK.

– A woman who has positively contributed to the Chinese community through unpaid, voluntary work.

– To have been involved in a volunteer capacity for a minimum of 6 months.

– Open to females only, aged 18 and above.

Nominations are now open and the closing deadline is 5pm Friday 7th Jul 2017
