“I am very pleased to launch the Coronavirus Community Champion Awards in my constituency of North West Cambridgeshire.

“Since the start of the pandemic I have seen incredible acts of selflessness and kindness across our area. Whether it is individuals volunteering with the local NHS, checking in on elderly neighbours, or community groups organising the delivery of groceries to those unable to travel, we have seen the very best shine through and I am keen to recognise those selfless individuals and groups.”
