Councillors will consider granting the accolade to three local people and one organisation at a full council meeting at Town Hall on Thursday, September 11.

The nominees for the award are Cecil Page, Hugh Sturzaker, Jayne Biggs and Great Yarmouth Samaritans.

Mr Page, of Kingfisher Amateur Boxing Club, is well-known in the town for his service to the sport and the wider community for the past 50 years.

Last year, he was given a prestigious WBC (World Boxing Council) lifetime achievement award.
