Nominations open for local heroes
Moreton Bay is calling on residents to spotlight local individuals who make a significant difference in their communities by nominating them for the 2025 Australia Day Awards.
Mayor Peter Flannery emphasised the awards celebrate those who enhance the lives of others and contribute to the vibrancy of the region.
“The awards are a wonderful opportunity to acknowledge our unsung heroes,” Mayor Flannery said.
“Previous winners have made notable contributions through charity, long-term volunteering, and impactful community service.”
Two awards are up for grabs: The Citizen of the Year Award, which honours exceptional local achievements, while the Mayor’s Community Spirit Award recognises significant contributions to the region in any field, including human services, sport, arts, culture, or the environment, regardless of residency or citizenship.
Nominations are open until October 31, 2024. Celebrate and thank those who make a real impact— nominate today!
