Do you know a local hero? Perhaps they are the local supermarket worker, or the junior doctor, or the delivery person who’s been by your house one too many times during lockdown thanks to your online shopping habit.
Whoever they are, Eurostar wants you to nominate them for a chance to win a free trip to a European destination of their choice with the rail service.
Eurostar is giving away a Standard Premier trip for two people each week as a thanks to those who have provided support or a valuable service during the global pandemic.
Those selected can choose to take their trip at any point between now and May 2021 (the UK government is still advising against all international travel at present), and guests can choose between any of Eurostar’s destinations, including the Netherlands, France and Belgium.
To nominate a local hero, simply leave a comment under the ‘nominate a hero’ post on Eurostar’s Facebook and Instagram pages. The competition closes on June 18.
The first winner, selected on May 27, was Thomas, a junior doctor who was nominated by his sister, and said: “Thank you to Eurostar for awarding me this prize, and to my sister, Rose, for nominating me! These past few months have been exhausting for so many people within healthcare and those supporting us to live our lives differently. I am really looking forward to taking a relaxing break on Eurostar as soon as we get back to some form of normality.”
Richard Sherwood, Director of Customer Engagement, Eurostar, said: “Throughout the coronavirus outbreak, we have been inspired by the stories we’ve seen amongst our communities. We hope that by providing the chance to win a Eurostar trip, we can help people thank the heroes that have made a difference to them over this challenging time.”
