It’s time to recognise local champions who have made the City of Swan a better place to live, work and visit by nominating them for the 2024 Community Citizen of the Year awards.

This is your opportunity to acknowledge an individual or community group that has made a significant contribution, demonstrated leadership, introduced a significant initiative or displayed inspiring qualities as a role model for the community.

You can nominate a local hero in four categories, Community Citizen of the Year, Young Community Citizen of the Year, Senior Community Citizen of the Year and Active Citizenship – Group or event.
 
Our 2024 Citizen of the Year winners were Michelle Turvey and Robyn Pickrell, who were nominated for their community advocacy.

Tanya Richardson, City of Swan Mayor, said the City was full of uncelebrated champions who deserve to be in the spotlight.

“Our community is built on the incredible and selfless work of individuals and groups who make our wonderful community even better,” she said.

“While these people often don’t contribute for the accolades, we want to acknowledge and celebrate them to raise awareness about their efforts and hopefully inspire others to follow.

“Think of your family members, friends, neighbours, or someone you have met in passing and tell us about the great things they have done so we can acknowledge them.”

Awards will be announced at the City of Swan’s 2025 Australia Day citizenship ceremony.

Nominations close on October 31, 2024.
