People are being invited to nominate children who have shown remarkable courage for a very special award.

Organisers of the Grand Pride Of Sefton Awards would love to hear your suggestions for this year’s Sefton Courage Award, honouring some very inspiring children in our community. 

The glittering night of celebration will take place at The Grand on Lord Street in Southport on Friday, 24th April 2026.

Nominating couldn’t be easier – please submit your details via the Pride Of Sefton Awards website: prideofseftonawards.co.uk or email: standupforsouthport@gmail.com 

The Pride Of Sefton Awards are organised by Mikhail Hotel and Leisure Group and Stand Up For Southport in association with media partners In Demand Radio.

There are 13 categories, including the Child of Courage Award, sponsored by Southport Pleasureland.

Organisers are seeking nominees who have shown immense courage in the face of adversity. Courage comes in different shapes – is it a child who has battled illness, performed an act of bravery or done something truly remarkable while up against the odds?

A Grand Pride Of Sefton Awards spokesperson said:

 “There are so many children doing incredible things in Sefton which inspire people every day.

“We’d love to hear more about them and show them the recognition they deserve. 

“The Pride of Sefton Awards are a fantastic initiative, giving us as a community a reason to come together and celebrate the efforts of those going above and beyond.”

People and groups who go above and beyond to make Sefton a special place for all will be presented with their trophies and given thanks in the Princess Grace Suite at The Grand on Lord Street in Southport town centre on Friday, 24th April 2026.

The unmissable night in the Merseyside events calendar will be presented by Claire Simmo and Fraser Dainton.

All those on the shortlist will be invited to a special celebratory meal in beautiful surroundings while the awards are presented, with a night of superb entertainment planned.

Nominations are still being invited across all 13 categories
