Nominations flood in for ‘most deserving’ competition – opportunities for Northern Ireland’s charities

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) February 7, 2012 -- The launch of a national campaign to find a local hero to be named “Most Deserving” and receive the gift of £10,000 towards a car, plus a donation of £2,500 to the charity of their choice has led to hundreds of moving nominations and there is still chance for a Northern Irish representative to win.

Leading used cars website Motors.co.uk launched the competition in January to reward local heroes and has been over-whelmed by the quality of the responses they have received. Nominations come from all walks of life with well-known charity fundraisers nominated alongside private carers who devote many hours of their time without reward, and people who simply face hardship and adversity with a smile on their face.

Nominations are still open and there is still time for charities and local community groups across Northern Ireland to nominate someone who they feel is deserving of special recognition.

When the shortlist is published, a short biography of each nominee, plus the reasons why the charity of their choice needs their support will be published on the voting area at http://mostdeserving.motors.co.uk/
