“In 2023 we received a fantastic response to the Awards, with a record number of nominations. We hope 2025 is the same and we strongly encourage people to consider making a nomination,” she said.

“Our region is home to many places of local, regional and state heritage significance and these awards aim to recognise the important community work which has been achieved in this space. There is a wide range of categories which ensures all heritage conservation work has an opportunity to be recognised.”
