City of Culture heroes: Aileen O'Shea
City of Culture have selected 21 Coventry heroes, we meet Aileen O'Shea.
Aileen is a Coventry City Council registrar who, for 16 years, has supported people with births, marriages and deaths. She retired in May and one of her final acts in the job was to give a couple their last wish by organising for them to be married on the ITU Ward at University Hospital Coventry and Warwickshire.
Twenty-one of Coventry鈥檚 real-life, everyday heroes are being celebrated and recognised for their acts of kindness after a citywide search produced an incredible response.
More than 100 people were nominated by friends, family or neighbours for the #OurCovHeroes campaign, launched in the summer by Coventry City of Culture Trust. The final 21 were then selected by a panel of young people from Coventry Youth Activist Group and the Belgrade Theatre.
