Shine the spotlight and nominate an inspiring Isaac woman

Nominations are now open for the 2022 Inspiring Women in Isaac Awards, where men and women come together to celebrate the powerhouse females in our lives.

Isaac Regional Council Mayor Anne Baker said the awards were a chance to nominate women of all ages and from all walks of life who help make the region a better place to live, work and play.

“We see inspiring women around us every day, and, in recent times, we’ve seen strong women determined to help their community keep moving forward amid the ongoing global pandemic,” Mayor Baker said.

“This is our chance to celebrate the incredible strength of women in Isaac and the valuable contributions they make to our communities.

"We are calling on residents to shine a spotlight on the inspirational stories and community contributions of some of the Isaac's finest women and help us celebrate the pure people power which drives our region.”

Mayor Baker said there were two award categories to nominate for the Inspiring Woman in Isaac and the Inspiring Young Woman in Isaac.

“Nominees could be someone special in your family, workplace or community,” she said.

“We all know ordinary women who play an extraordinary role in our community.”

Nominees and winners would be recognised at International Women’s Day and Queensland Women’s Week events in communities across the region between Friday, 4 March 2022 to Sunday, 14 March 2022.

Nominations close on Wednesday, 16 February 2022 online at https://speakup.isaac.qld.gov.au/inspiring-women-in-isaac-awards or hardcopy forms are available from Isaac Regional Council offices and libraries.
