THE New Forest Trust is welcoming nominations for its Diamond Jubilee Award.
First presented by Her Majesty the Queen to celebrate her Diamond Jubilee in 2012, the award is given annually at the New Forest Show at the end of July.
It recognises those who have made a significant contribution towards maintaining or improving the environment and rural economy of the New Forest or helping with the conservation or cultural heritage.
The winner is chosen by a panel nominated by the principal voluntary New Forest organisations – the New Forest Association, the New Forest Commoners Defence Association, the New Forest Pony & Cattle Breeding Society and the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust.
