LOCAL HEROES WORTHY OF NATIONAL ATTENTION
Julie Owens, Federal Member for Parramatta, is encouraging the Parramatta community to nominate people from the area for the 2016 Australian of the Year Awards.
“The Australian of the Year Awards relies on members of the public to submit nominations for people who are worthy of national attention,” said Ms Owens.
“Within our community there are many people deserving of recognition and I hope to see the volunteers, achievers and contributors in our area nominated for the awards and recognised for their inspiring work.
“It’s simple to nominate someone you admire, it’s a wonderful way to thank someone for their contribution and it could be a nomination which finds the next Australian of the Year.
“Let’s see our local heroes nominated for national attention.”
Nominations for the four Award categories are now being accepted:
· Australian of the Year · Senior Australian of the Year (65 years and over) · Young Australian of the Year (16-30 years) · Australia’s Local Hero
Nominations for all Australian of the Year Award categories can be made online at australianoftheyear.org.au or call 1300 655 193 for more information.
