This year's Fusion Awards will take place on Saturday 24 May in the Premier Suite, Ewood Park, Blackburn Rovers Football Club.

From those working in a voluntary capacity to those reaching new heights in their chosen career - the Fusion Awards want to reward their endeavours.

After last year’s successful Fusion Awards and fashion event we are pleased that so many of you again nominated your community heroes and champions.

This year we have a wider range of people from different backgrounds and cultures and this one of the reasons the awards have been so successful.

The concept of the awards is to give recognition to those who take part in so much community work but do not always remain in the public domain.

For the majority of our nominees this is the first time they have been recognized in this way.

The full list has been published in this month's Asian Image and will appear here in the coming days....
