Pride in Doncaster Awards 2012

Recognising exceptional people in Doncaster

The awards are run in partnership between Doncaster Council and the Free Press to help recognise exceptional people in Doncaster that have done something really special or given something back to their local community and have been designed to recognise people from all walks of life, young and old for a range of different contributions.
