A local event where local people are awarded for various categories, all that are centered around recognising the work people and groups do in the community. I went to the same event last year, a year on I am still at Costa and had the chance to go a second time. Adam Woodyatt who plays Ian Beale in the UK soap Eastenders was the host for the evening. Some people have done some amazing things, raising money for local charities, Coppafeel - for breast cancer, a young girl rescued her even younger cousin from a pond, there is also a dog there that has been trained to smell when his owner's blood sugar is too high/low as she has a very severe case of diabetes.
