A night to remember at our Stars in Surrey awards

Recognising those who make a difference to our community

The Stars in Surrey awards celebrate the extraordinary individuals and teams who go above and beyond to make Surrey a better place to live, work, and thrive.

In its third year, the 2024 awards took place on Tuesday 3 December. The evening was dedicated to recognising the dedication, innovation, and tireless service of our local heroes, staff, and community champions.

These awards highlight Surrey's spirit of collaboration, empathy, and excellence. Each nomination showed how collective effort can bring meaningful change. We are proud to have celebrated our amazing community. Take a look at our highlight reel below.
