The highly anticipated, prestigious 2022 Pride of Andover Awards ceremony has taken place, a great evening that brings together local sponsors and more importantly, local people that we now identify as our heroes for their outstanding commitment to the Andover community.
Tuesday 25th October saw this year’s Pride of Andover Awards finalists, some of Andover’s unsung heroes, the people who make such a big difference to so many lives but who are so often ‘just getting on with it’, recognised at the Awards ceremony.
Advocated by main sponsors David Mellor Family Jewellers, the event held at The Lights was hosted by Channel Four’s Hunted star, Jordan Wylie, and compared by local personality and previous Pride of Andover Young Person of the Year Award winner from 2013, Luis Wyatt.
The Awards celebrated the inspiring and selfless actions of some of the town’s most generous individuals. We had an incredible number of nominations and more winners than ever, making this year’s event the best yet.
