Commenting Portsmouth MP Stephen Morgan said:

“As someone who was born and raised in Fratton, I know that there are people in our community who go out of their way to improve our local area.

That’s why a few years ago, working alongside Big Local Fratton, I launched the Inspiring Fratton awards.

Local people make Fratton somewhere we can be proud to live, so please nominate anyone you know who deserve to be recognised for their contributions to our community”
