🌟 Help Us Celebrate the Everyday Heroes of the City 🌟

Do you know someone who makes our city a better place just by being in it?

🀝 The five City Business Improvement Districts (BIDs), Aldgate Connect, Cheapside Business Alliance, Culture Mile BID, Eastern City BID and Fleet Street Quarter are coming together to shine a light on the unsung heroes who bring heart, kindness and positivity to our streets, workplaces and communities.

We’re asking you to help us find those local legends β€” the ones who:

  • Make a meaningful difference to others in the City
  • Always go above and beyond their everyday duties
  • Bring a positive energy wherever they go
  • Are always ready to listen and support

Whether it’s a porter, a colleague, a cleaner, a barista, a volunteer, or a friendly face who always says helloβ€”we want to hear their story.

πŸŽ‰ What’s in it for them?

Not only will our chosen City Heroes be invited to attend the City of London Lord Mayor’s Show on Saturday 8th November 2025, riding proudly on the City BIDs float β€”
but three nominated heroes from each BID footprint will also win a Β£100 City Gift Card!

πŸ“… Nominations close: Friday 15th August 2025 | πŸŽ–οΈ Winners will be announced: Monday 1st September 2025

πŸ‘‰ Nominate your hero here.
