Awards

As part of the procession we normally present awards during the Oration in the Bathgate High Parish Church. If you know someone that should be celebrated within our community for their contributions then this is the perfect opportunity to recognise their hard work

We ask that you nominate the person(s) of your choice for each award for the consideration of the committee. Nominations for both should be sent to the Committee Secretary at bathgateprocessionsecretary@hotmail.com.

The deadline for nominations for 2025 has now closed. Thanks to everyone who nominated.
