LGF rewards Homo Heroes

The Lesbian & Gay Foundation’s Homo Hero Awards 2012

The Lesbian & Gay Foundation’s Homo Hero Awards are designed to showcase the contributions made by individuals, groups and organisations for, and on behalf of the lesbian, gay and bisexual community.

The awards provide an opportunity to celebrate those that have challenged homophobia, achieved significant gains for our communities and who share The Lesbian & Gay Foundation’s values of innovation, diversity, excellence, fairness, integrity and engagement.

There are a total of seven categories in which you can nominate any person, group or organisation that you believe has made a difference to the lives of lesbian, gay and bisexual people.

To make your nominations you will be required to provide a valid email address. One set of nominations will only be accepted per email address.

The nomination period will be from 15 June 2012 -31 July 2012 and the categories are:

Homo Hero - Community Champion of the year
Homo Hero - Business of the year
Homo Hero - lesbian, gay or bisexual role model of the year
Homo Hero - Public Sector Partner of the year
Homo Hero – Volunteer of the year
Homo Hero - Community group or organisation of the year
Homo Hero - LGB&T venue of the Year Award

Following this initial nomination period, the top three nominees for each award category will be put forward for a public vote from 6 August 2012 until 3 September 2012; the winners will then be announced at a special Homo Hero Awards Ceremony on Thursday 20 September 2012.
