The Active Wyre awards recognise stand out individuals, clubs, schools and volunteers who have made amazing achievements, contributed to their community or shown dedication to sport.
Every year the awards pay tribute to those who show dedication to perform at the highest level, regardless of their age. They also highlight individuals, clubs and schools who work tirelessly to support their local community and create an environment where people can thrive.
This year, over 70 nominations were submitted for individuals, clubs, schools and organisations and those who were shortlisted attended the award ceremony at the Civic Centre in Poulton.
As well as the 10 winners, judges decided to highlight 10 others as highly commended due to the high calibre of nominees.
