Mayor Kerry Hayes acknowledged how these awards are our chance to formally recognise, celebrate, and reward the unsung heroes who have championed their community in good times and bad.
‘Australia Day Awards are always about thanking those people who make our communities a better place – by the work they do, the encouragement they offer or simply the passion they show,’ Mayor Hayes said.
‘I am looking forward to recognising those who have gone above and beyond for our community over this time, and encourage everyone to nominate someone you would like to thank for making a significant contribution to the Central Highlands.’
