VIDEO: Meet your 2023 Local Hero Award honourees

Local heroes leave a lasting impact on the West Shore

The West Shore is filled with individuals and organizations who go above and beyond to make the area a special place. Whether that’s through volunteering, acts of service or simply inspiring others with their contributions, these people don’t do it for the recognition.

That’s where we come in.

The Local Hero Awards shine a spotlight on those who often hide from it, showcasing all the good they do for the West Shore. This year, we recognize 12 individuals or organizations who have been working tirelessly across the West Shore to help improve the lives of others. From community nominations, we have selected these recipients based on their legacies and lasting contributions to the West Shore.

Along with the video above, we’ll also be releasing profiles online over the next several days. But if you can’t wait, you can find the special feature in the March 22 edition of the Goldstream Gazette or online under e-editions.

We thank all of our local heroes for their service and we hope you enjoy reading about their contributions to our community.
