The 2021 Alcoa Peel Volunteer of the Year Awards

Peel Volunteer Resource Centre has now opened nominations for the Alcoa Peel Volunteer of the Year Awards.  Now in their fourteenth year, these awards promote the value and important contributions made to the social, cultural, economic and environmental wellbeing to the Peel community.  They pay tribute to all those who, by their accomplishments, encourage and promote the spirit of volunteerism.

To be eligible for these awards, the volunteering effort must be of benefit to the Peel region.

The contribution volunteers make to other people’s lives is immeasurable.  They enhance lives in so many ways by their unstinting work in so many areas – sporting clubs, community groups and emergency services.  And all without payment!  Some may give a few hours work while others work almost full time, but they all have one thing in common – they CARE.

And whatever their contribution, we acknowledge it and say Thank You.

By taking part in these awards, we all have the opportunity to say

“#WEAPPRECIATEVOLUNTEERS”

Nominations can be made in the following categories –

Peel Volunteer                      Supported by the City of Mandurah

Peel Youth Volunteer            Supported by the Shire of Murray
