Last night (17th July), the Loughborough Family joined together to celebrate the very best of the University community.
In its first virtual ceremony since the awards’ inception in 2005, the LEAs aimed to recognise and reward the students who put tremendous effort into the Loughborough experience throughout their time in the East Midlands – giving something back to the students who invest their time in both the the University and Students’ Union.
Over 300 nominations were submitted to the panel this year despite the global Coronavirus pandemic, meaning that selecting the winners for the 13 individual LEAs and the additional awards “was no easy task”. The panel looked for selflessness, attitude, impact of the nominees activities, and variation in activities, in each nominee.
Union President Salomé Doré revealed the winners on the night, alongside current and past Exec members and the Vice Chancellor. The individuals and groups awarded were as follows:
