NOMINATIONS for City of Whittlesea’s local hero closes soon, with only few weeks away to show appreciation to the people who make a difference in the local area.
City of Whittlesea are calling on the community to nominate for the five categories including Citizen of the Year, Young Citizen of the Year, Senior Citizen of the Year, Access and Inclusion Citizen of the Year, and Sustainable Environment Citizen or Group of the Year.
Council is encouraging the community to nominate more local heroes in two newer categories – the Access and Inclusion Citizen of the Year and the Sustainable Environment Citizen or Group of the Year, which represents perseverance in creating accessible opportunities for others and towards environmental issues.
Nominations for the awards close on January 31 and will be presented at the 2022 Community Awards at the City of Whittlesea Community Festival in March 2023.
Nominations can be made online at www.whittlesea.vic.gov.au/communityawards or in person at the Civic Centre in South Morang, with paper forms available at the Customer Service desk.
