Nominations open for Warminster’s person and group of the year

Nominations are open for Warminster Person and Group of the Year awards, run by the Warminster Journal.

This will be the first year of the awards, which recognise the person and group who have made a real contribution to the community in 2025.

For the Person of the Year award, any individual who lives or works in the Warminster area and has made a significant contribution to the local community can be nominated. This could include someone involved in a local charity, helping to run a sports club or volunteering their time to improve life in Warminster.

For the Group of the Year award, any group, organisation or committee whose work has benefited the area in 2025 can be nominated. The members do not all need to be from Warminster, as long as their efforts have had a positive effect on the local area.

Warminster Journal editor Ian Drew said, “We know there are so many people and groups in Warminster doing great things for the community. We encourage everyone to get involved and submit their nominations – it’s your chance to recognise those who make a real difference to our town.”

Nominations can be made by emailing news@warminsterjournal.co.uk or via Facebook Messenger, stating your name, address and contact number, along with your nominee’s name and the reason for your nomination. (We won’t disclose who has made the nominations.) If you have contact details for your nominee, please include these. Alternatively, you can write to Warminster Journal, 31 Market Place, Melksham, SN12 6ES.

Nominations must be received by 5pm on 30th November. The winner of each award will be chosen by a small panel of local representatives and announced in an upcoming issue.
