Former Murgon QAS paramedic Trent Wrayford is a true everyday hero, and now he has a certificate to prove it.<\/p>\n

Trent retired from the QAS earlier this year after developing a serious eye condition, but that has not stopped him wanting to help the local community.<\/p>\n

He was one of the movers behind the formation of the South Burnett First Aid Volunteers group, which officially opened its new training centre and headquarters in Murgon in July.<\/p>\n

Trent was a finalist in the “Achievement” category of the annual QBANK Everyday Heroes awards, which were announced at a lunch in Brisbane on Friday.<\/p>\n

The Everyday Heroes awards recognise people who have made an outstanding contribution to the Queensland community or given meritorious service to their association.<\/p>\n

QBANK, formerly the Queensland Police Credit Union, says the awards are the organisation’s way of saying “thank you” to people who make a difference in the community.<\/p>\n

There are five categories: Achievement, Dedication, Excellence, Ownership, Working Together and Young Everyday Hero.<\/p>\n

The five main category winners each received $1000 cash deposited into a QBANK account and $1000 donated to their charity of choice.<\/p>\n

The Young Everyday Hero award winner received a $500 bursary towards their training and development.<\/p>\n

Cherbourg Fire Station station captain Cameron Bond won the Everyday Hero award for Dedication at the 2016 awards ceremony.<\/strong><\/p>\n

And in 2014, Peter Verbakel, from Kingaroy SES, was a finalist in the Everyday Hero award for Working Together.<\/p>\n
