AWARDS FINALISTS

The Excellence in Innovation Awards acknowledges those key people in councils and the non government sector who work tirelessly behind the scenes to improve sustainability in our community. 

We were overwhelmed with the number of nominations received for these awards, all of which were of a very high standard. As such, it has been a challenging process for our judging panel to narrow down our finalists.
