The YorkMix Hero Awards are back for 2023 . Once again we’ve teamed up with Yorkshire Profiles to give you the chance to thank someone who makes life better where you live.

This year we’ll be recognising our heroes in a lavish award ceremony at York Racecourse on October 26th.

We’re now asking you to nominate someone you know in one of our Hero Award categories. A panel of judges will then meet and shortlisted finalists will be announced later on this year.

Scroll down to complete our nomination form.

The YorkMix Hero Awards 2023 are kindly supported by Yorkshire Profiles – providers of quality assured metal fabrication at the heart of North Yorkshire.
