We held our fifth Heston West Big Local Community Volunteer Awards Celebration on Saturday 11th September 2021. Together we celebrated our volunteer's dedication to supporting our community throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, helping with our foodbank programme. This year we also presented our Brian Clark Community Leader and Community Young Leader Award in recognition of outstanding community leadership and work during the pandemic, this award was dedicated in memory of our late volunteer and community hero Brian Clark. The Awards celebration was hosted by Layba Nisar, Jassia Kwokova, and Rahima Josan.

The awards were presented by London Borough of Hounslow Mayor Bishnu Gurung at Cranford Community College.

Live music performance by Bantu Arts, Huzayma Khamis and Rayan Ali.
