Judging the Lord Mayor’s medal
Judging panel and criteria
Nominations will be judged by Bristol city councillors and the Lord Mayor.
We may do some checks to:
- verify the validity of the nomination
- inform the panel’s final decision making
The judges will use the following criteria:
- service of the nominee and what is unique, distinctive or special about it
- how the nominee has improved the quality of life for the people and city of Bristol during coronavirus (COVID-19)
The decision of the judging panel is final.
Awarding the Lord Mayor’s medal
Around 12 to 15 medals will be awarded. This is a competitive process and not all nominations will be successful.
During the judging process, we check that the information in the nomination is valid, and consistent with the nominee's general character and behaviour. If we find evidence that it isn't, we may withdraw the nomination.
