Two opportunities now open for you to nominate people for recognition for their contribution to our community.

Gareth Ward, Member for Kiama, is seeking nominations for the 2nd annual Kiama Community Recognition Awards. “We have so many dedicated volunteers, emergency services personnel and small business people across our region,” he said. “I am strongly encouraging people to nominate those who have made outstanding contributions to make our community a better place.”

At the same time, Kiama Council is seeking nominations of local heroes for the Australia Day Awards.

“In the past, we have struggled to get nominations,” says Mayor Brian Petschler. “I urge you to think about local people you know and nominate someone who deserves recognition.”
