The Leprosy Mission International (TLMI) invites nominations for the sixth round of Wellesley Bailey Awards.
The Awards will be presented in the first week of June 2009 at a unique awards ceremony in Canada.
The Awards are presented to people who have had leprosy and who have made an outstanding contribution to society. The person nominated must have shown courage and achievement in overcoming the challenges faced through leprosy.
Two separate awards will be given, preferably to one male and one female. Unsuccessful nominations from previous years can also be submitted for reconsideration. Whether or not the nominee is informed is at the discretion of those making the nomination. Self-nominations will not be accepted.
