In particular, this year, we encourage nominations for individuals/groups who have provided support to the community, or individuals within it, during the Covid19 pandemic.
Eligibility: The award is open to any resident/s of Northowram, who (must) reside in the village - other than the overall winner from the previous year.
Nominations: can be made by any resident/s of Northowram, who (must) reside in the village, other than members of the NSE Committee. Nominations should be submitted on the form available here or from any member of the committee. Forms will also available in the local shops and pubs (after lock-down).
Each nomination can be backed by up to two supporting statements from other Northowram residents. Such supporting statements must be signed by each supporter along with their full name and address.

Nominations should be passed to an NSE Committee member in person or via The Club on Northowram Green, by email to or posted to the mailbox outside Northowram News on Northowram Green, and must be submitted by January 31st in each year.
Judging: Nominations will initially be vetted by an NSE Sub-Committee for a short list to be brought to the full NSE Committee, and, if a Nominee is known to any Committee member, they will declare their interest.
Award: If the award is for an individual or a group, the award will be £100 of vouchers plus an engraved trophy.
The winner of the award will be announced in May 2021, at the start of the Northowram Scarecrow Event.

The 9th A. G. M. for the Northowram Scarecrow Event was held in The Club gazebo and due to the local lock down enforcement was attended by NSE Committee members only. The booklet for the meeting can be viewed here.
Each year following the Annual General Meeting the committee for the Northowram Scarecrow Event is revised. The members of the committee are all volunteers, who give up their time freely, whilst most also have full time work positions. They attend monthly committee meetings, as well as the May Day Weekend, in its entirety, to help run the event each year.
The list of these committee members can be found here.
If you require any information you can contact anyone on or if you know any of them personally I am sure they would only too willing to help.
