Nominate your Cheapside Community Hero!

5 August 2025


Do you know someone who makes the Cheapside area a better place just by being in it?

Cheapside Business Alliance, alongside the other City BIDs: Aldgate Connect BID, Culture Mile BID, Eastern City BID and Fleet Street Quarter, are coming together to shine a light on the unsung heroes who bring heart, kindness and positivity to our streets, workplaces and communities. Or those who give back and go the extra mile.

We’re asking you to help us find those local legends — the ones who:

  • Make a meaningful difference to others in the City
  • Always go above and beyond their everyday duties
  • Bring a positive energy wherever they go
  • Are always ready to listen and support
  • Whether it’s a porter, a colleague, a cleaner, a barista, a volunteer, or a friendly face who always says hello—we want to hear their story.

What’s in it for them?

Not only will our chosen City Heroes be invited to attend the City of London Lord Mayor’s Show on Saturday 8th November 2025, riding proudly on the City BIDs float, but three nominated heroes from each BID footprint will also win a £100 City Gift Card!

  • Lord Mayor’s Show runs from 10:30am to 3:00pm, Saturday 8th November 2025
  • Nominations close: 15th August 2025
  • Winners will be announced by 1st September 2025

Nominate your Cheapside hero today!

Let’s give our local heroes the recognition they’ve earned.
