Nominations are now open for the Whitley Bay Town Cup, as North Tyneside Council looks to recognise the stars of the seaside town.
Every year, the authority presents the award to an individual or organisation in Whitley Bay for an outstanding contribution to the seaside town – whether that is through hosting an outstanding event or providing outstanding service for the community.
The history of the cup dates back to 1954 when it was introduced by the former Whitley Bay Council. It was donated to North Tyneside Council in its formation in 1974.
Previous winners of the award include Shirkara, JamJar Cinema and The BAY Foodbank.
If you would like to nominate an individual or organisation, you can get an application form by emailing democraticsupport@northtyneside.gov.uk. The closing date for nominations is January 24.
