The Arc Cinema in Hucknall needs your support as it chases votes in new national competition.

The High Street venue is celebrating its first full year open and is entering the UK Cinema Heroes competition.

To celebrate the upcoming release of the new Sam Mendes film Empire of Light, the UK Cinema Association and Searchlight Pictures are looking for the unsung cinema heroes keeping the magic of the big screen alive for communities up and down the UK.

And Arc boss Mark Gallagher and his team are looking for your votes after a year of huge fan events and promotions for films like Top Gun, Elvis and Jurassic World, as well as staging the first Ashfield Film Festival, being a big part of the first Hucknall Pride, holding video game competitions and events and a whole lot more besides.

Anyone can nominate their own cinema hero.

The winner will win a trip for two to Hollywood, along with a staff party for their cinema colleagues.

The two runners-up will win a pair of tickets to a Searchlight Pictures or Disney red carpet premiere event in London.

All entries should be submitted by 2pm on January 9.
