Readers have only nine days left to submit nominations before the closure of this year’s Local Heroes Awards. With the awards gala event scheduled for October 26, readers can still nominate unsung heroes of their communities before nomination lines close on August 23. Selected finalists will be honoured during a gala evening at the ICC in East London on October 26.
Tubs Lingham, 34, from Gonubie, understands what it means to be destitute, alone and hungry. “Sometimes, it’s eat or die,” he said. But from a place of loss blossomed a true fire-starting hero, whose commitment to feeding underprivileged children placed him as one of the 2022 Daily Dispatch and Johnson & Johnson Local Hero winners.
This year the Local Hero gala event was a night of rose gold glamour in honour of 12 winners whose work helping their communities stood out from more than 50 nominees. In the first in-person event since 2019, the Daily Dispatch and Johnson & Johnson Local Heroes awarded the selected finalists with R20,000 and a professionally shot video of their projects.
