Nominations are now open for the 2025 Manurewa Community Volunteer Awards, which showcase the work of individuals and organisations that serve their community.
Volunteers are the heart and soul of our community, dedicating their time, energy, and passion to making a difference in the lives of others. Their contributions, whether big or small, help to build a stronger, more connected community.
The awards are one way the Manurewa Local Board recognises the efforts of the many volunteers in the board area.
“It’s important to recognise and celebrate the people who dedicate their time, effort and skills to our community, says board chair, Angela Dalton.
“This year we have introduced a new category for local businesses who go over and above to help the community.
“These awards are our way to say thank you and highlight their contribution which often goes unnoticed.”
There are five award categories:
-
Local hero – Nominated by anyone in the community, this award is for individuals who make a difference in the community. These are people who are always there giving a helping hand when needed.
-
Group or organisation making a difference – For groups and organisations for their work in the community, whether is it arts, sports, social or other. Can be nominated by anyone in the community.
Get your nominations in by Friday 28 March by filling in the online nomination form.
All nominees must be residents living within the Manurewa Local Board area or be groups and organisations that are based or volunteer within the area.
