Nominations are open to people whose volunteering occurred within the Greater Shepparton Local Government Area. The four award categories are:
Young Volunteer: 12 to 25 years of age. Adult Volunteer: 26 years of age and over. Volunteer Team: A group of two or more people. Long Serving Volunteer: 15 years or more service.All nominees and nominators will be invited to celebrate at the Greater Shepparton Volunteer Recognition Awards ceremony held during National Volunteer Week in May 2023.
Mayor, Councillor Shane Sali urged community members to nominate a deserving recipient who has dedicated their time to assist people within the region.
“Every one of us would know of an individual or group of people who volunteer and make a positive difference within our community,” he said.
“Now is your chance to make sure these people are recognised for their contributions to our region. Volunteers are the backbone of our community. They keep sporting and community clubs running, helping maintain social connections and provide essential services for residents.”
