Harry Potter actor David Bradley will be the special guest at Warwick and Leamington MP Matt Western's awards ceremony which will recognise the great and good among his constituents.

Mr Bradley, who played Hogwarts’ caretaker Argus Filch in the hit films, and Mr Western will also be joined by BBC Coventry and Warwickshire presenter Trish Adudu, who will host The MP Awards for Community Excellence 2021 event.

Mr Western said the judges have selected this year’s winners from more than 100 nominations – eclipsing the total number from last year.

He said: “It was great to see so many people submit nominations, and to find some worthy winners after another challenging year for the community.

“I’m excited to be joined by Trish and David who will make this an extra special event.

“The event will last about an hour, and I hope people can tune in and show their support for those who have done so much for our community – and deserve recognition for their efforts.”

Nominations were submitted for individuals, community groups, teams (like those carrying out a public service), and businesses.

Last year there were eight winners including the NHS Warwick Hospital Frailty Unit and LWS Night Shelter.

Streams will go live on Mr Western’s Facebook page, YouTube channel and on his website – with links to be circulated.
