The Be Proud Awards celebrate Manchester's many volunteers and the unsung heroes who make Our Manchester great.
The Awards are the perfect way to thank these extraordinary individuals and groups for their hard work in helping others.
We know that these individuals and groups make a real difference in our communities; we also know that some don't even realise how much good they do.
Yet their work really helps to improve our neighbourhoods, and the Be Proud Awards give you the chance to show them how much you appreciate their efforts by nominating them for the great work they do.
Residents nominated their heroes and the 2023 finalists and winners were announced at a gala dinner and awards ceremony at the Midland Hotel on Friday 3 March 2023.
