IS it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's you - our fabulous Gazette readers.

It's National Superhero Day on Wednesday but rather than celebrating caped crusaders or those with magical powers, we want to honour the real heroes of everyday life.

In real life, superheroes are those who go above and beyond the call of duty to help others and keep us safe, whether they are nurses, police officers, firemen, doctors, volunteers or teachers.

Maybe your parents, grandparents or siblings are your heroes - people you look up to for things they have achieved or overcome in their lives.

Whoever the person and whatever the reason, be sure to let us know so we can shine the spotlight on them, both in our papers and online.

Send us some details and a picture by using the link below and we'll do the rest to give them the credit they clearly deserve.
