RIGHT Royal Evening News readers have the chance to wine and dine with the Queen as she celebrates the lives of inspirational people.

Worcester's favourite newspaper has been invited to put forward ground-breaking individuals who readers feel deserve a privileged place at the reception at Buckingham Palace, this October.

Nominees must have contributed something unique to their country, whether that means they have changed lives for the better or set new examples for others to follow.

They might have made a difference by their fund-raising efforts or helping people who are disabled or disadvantaged.

They might be pioneers in the fields of health, education, business or the arts.

If you know someone, aged 18 or over, who has made a valuable contribution to the community, this is your opportunity to see them receive recognition for their work.

Tell us who they are, where they live and what they have done that deserves to be acknowledged.

Don't forget to give your own name and telephone number, as well as the full name, address and telephone number of the person you wish to nominate.

As a result of your nomination, they might receive an invitation from the Queen to attend the reception on Monday, October 13.

The Evening News will send a list of nominees to Buckingham Palace for consideration, and the choice of guests will be made at the Palace.

Write to Queen's Party, Evening News at Berrows House, Hylton Road, Worcester, WR2 5JX or e-mail your nomination to wenedit@thisisworcester.co.uk

The closing date for entries is Saturday, August 16.
