Citizen of the Year Nominations

Each year, South Australia celebrates the achievements and contributions of outstanding members of their communities through the Citizen of the Year Awards. These individuals offer remarkable service each day and so often this is invisible to us. They don’t do it for the praise or for recognition – they do it simply because it makes a difference to the people of our state.

The Citizen of the Year Awards comprises of 4 major categories:

Citizen of the Year Award: The most outstanding Citizen for the local government authority.

Young Citizen of the Year Award: The most outstanding Young Citizen for the local government authority.

Community Event of the Year Award: A person or group who has staged the most outstanding community event.

Award for Active Citizenship: A person or group delivering outstanding work on an event or project for the community during the past calendar year.

The Citizen of the Year Awards rely on nominations from the public. If there is an unsung hero in our community who you would like to nominate, you can either drop into council to pick up a hard copy nomination form or nominate online through the Citizen of the Year website: www.citizenoftheyear.com.au
