Mikhail Hotel and Leisure Group Pride of St Helens Award
The night’s premier award will salute a person or organisation who judges believe has made a truly inspiring or outstanding contribution to St Helens over the past two years.

Saints Sportsperson of the Year Award
Whose achievements in the sporting arena have been the brightest over the past two years?
We want nominations from all sporting fields – from amateurs to professionals, and from coaches to players. 

HMS Housing Community Business Hero
Which person, team, business or organisation made an incredible difference to the people of St Helens or section of our community. Tell us about their outstanding contribution.

Handepay Unsung Hero Award
Tell us about the person who makes a huge difference to our town’s communities, organisations or teams but who rarely gets a spot in the limelight.

St Helens UPVC Courage Award
Every year the Star runs stories telling of the heroism, courage or bravery of people from this town. But many others must go untold. Nominees could have performed a dramatic rescue or maybe they’ve overcome illness or injury to record inspiring achievements. 

Lanny Man Child Of Courage Award
We are searching for nominees who have shown immense courage in the face of adversity. Courage comes in different shapes – is it a child who has battled illness, performed an act of bravery or done something truly remarkable while up against the odds?

JC Kitchens School Of The Year 
Which is the best school in St Helens and why? How are the youngsters and teachers making a difference in our communities? What have been the outstanding achievements. In this new category we welcome nominations from pupils, parents or schools themselves

Assured Life Charity Champion
Charities local and nationally survive and thrive on the cash raised by big-hearted fundraisers. And they have really needed it in tough times during 2020/21. We don’t just want to hear who has raised the most, but how they have done it, what difference has it made and why it has inspired you. 

Imperial Bar &Terrace Arts Award
Often St Helens is guilty of not shouting loud enough about those who have achieved remarkable things in the world of stage, screen, and music. We want to hear about bright young things and those who have made it to the very top. 

St Helens Borough Council Young Sportsperson of the Year
Which of St Helens’ sporting juniors have recorded the biggest achievement? In a town with so much talent we would expect a deluge of entries. Tell us who stands out? (Nominees must not have reached their 19th birthday by October 31.) 

Accord Wills Community Impact Award

Which business or other organisation has had the biggest positive impact on their community? How have they made St Helens a better place or helped people? Have they used their heart as well as their business head to serve their area?

Arcoframe Special Achievement Award
This award recognises a person who has made the outstanding and lasting contribution to life in St Helens. There will be no shortlist for this title announced prior to this award – instead the Pride of St Helens judging panel will reflect on potential candidates during the process and the winner will be awarded on the night. 

Swindells Roofing Pride of Place Award

We have some amazing places across St Helens – but is there one street or community in particular that makes you proud? Maybe they put on amazing Jubilee gathering, have transformed the way an area looks or have done something outstanding for charity.
