Written by Glasgow View Reporter, Liam Eunson
Renfrewshire has honoured local groups and volunteers for their work in the community at the Provost’s Community Awards.
Renfrewshire’s Provost Lorraine Cameron was joined by comperè Jed McCabe to help celebrate the achievements of devoted community members who go above and beyond to make Renfrewshire a better place to live and work.
The award winners were invited to a special ceremony at the Glynhill Hotel in Renfrew after being chosen from outstanding nominations submitted by their peers in the local community.
The recipients of this year’s awards were:
– Arts and Culture (sponsored by Renfrewshire Council) – Paisley & District Royal British Legion Pipe Band
Community Group (sponsored by City Gate Construction) – Roar Connections for Life
– Community Volunteer (sponsored by Glasgow Airport Ltd) – Ian Glover
– Employee of the Year (sponsored by UNISON Renfrewshire) – Robert McEwan
– Sport Award (sponsored by Acre Industrial Services Ltd) – Milldale Day Opportunities Boccia Team
– Provost’s Award for Outstanding Achievement – St Mirren FC Charitable Foundation
Renfrewshire’s Provost Lorraine Cameron said: “The Community Awards are a great opportunity to celebrate those who continue to go above and beyond without looking for reward or recognition.
“Each winner was nominated by their own communities and it’s an honour to reward them for their dedication and commitment.
“As the Provost, I meet hundreds of inspiring people and groups every year and it never ceases to amaze me that there is so much fantastic work going on throughout Renfrewshire.
“Congratulations to all our winners, your hard work does not go unnoticed.”
The Provost’s Community Awards were first established in 1997 by former Provost Nancy Allison and have been continued by each subsequent Provost, recognising more than 100 deserving community members for their commitment and devotion.
