Submit Your Nomination For the Nan Evans Award

A huge thank you to Nona Aston and Judy Livingston for speaking at our September Network Meeting about Nan Evans and her legacy. I was pleased to be able to learn about the woman Nan Evans was and the inspiration she provided to her husband, who dedicated the Nan Evans award to our network in her name.

We are now accepting nominations for this award which will be presented at our Annual General Meeting in November. The award is presented to long-serving volunteers in our community to acknowledge voluntary action, teamwork or inspirational leadership, or those with persistent determination to see our community’s social needs are being addressed and that shared goals are being realised.
