The Queensland Regional Achievement and Community Awards are now calling for nominations and Member for Nanango Deb Frecklington is encouraging community groups to nominate.

“The Regional Achievement and Community Awards are a fantastic way to encourage and support local individuals and groups dedicated to enhancing our local community,” she said.

“Without the efforts of such individuals and groups our community would not be as vibrant as it is today. These awards help to highlight community success, so if you know of someone, who you feel is worthy of recognition, please take the time to nominate through this year’s awards.”

Nominations are now open in the following categories:

  • The Salvation Army Employment Plus Business and Employment Award
  • The Peabody Environment and Landcare Award
  • The Clark Rubber Regional Service Award
  • The Prime Super Community of the Year Award

Winners will be announced at a gala dinner on the Sunshine Coast on November 3.
