Moree Plains Shire Council’s Community Development/Liaison Officer Jacqui Moore said the awards are a great way to show appreciation for individuals and groups who have made a significant voluntary contribution in 2021 and have given something extra to the Moree community. “We live in a welcoming community and I encourage people to nominate that special volunteer(s) who has gone that extra mile. Their efforts should be recognised”, said Ms Moore. “A nomination shows a nominee they’re celebrated by the whole community and that their work is felt far further than they realise.” Nomination forms can be found HERE .
