Our community achieves great things every day. Here are some ways in which we can acknowledge the contribution of those enriching Glenorchy’s culture, identity and community.
Glenorchy Community and Volunteer Awards
Do you know someone who makes Glenorchy a better place?
Glenorchy City Council is inviting the community to nominate our local legends for the 2026 Community and Volunteer Awards — the people who go above and beyond to support, inspire and strengthen our city.
We’re looking to celebrate individuals who show excellence, leadership and heart, and who make a real difference in the lives of others.
They might be a standout sportsperson or coach, a tireless volunteer at a local club, or a small business owner giving back to the community. They could be a fundraiser, a changemaker, a creative, or simply someone who quietly shows extraordinary kindness, resilience or generosity every day.
If you know someone who leads by example and helps Glenorchy thrive, now’s the time to recognise them.
Award categories include:
- Citizen of the Year
- Young Citizen of the Year
- Senior Citizen of the Year
- Local Hero Award
- Volunteer Recognition
👉 Nominate someone who makes a difference and help us celebrate the people who make Glenorchy shine.
