RDA Hunter is pleased to have been invited to help recognise companies and individuals making valuable contributions across NSW and the ACT as it once again joined the judging panel for the NSW Community Achievement Awards, a role it has held since 2015.

The Community Achievement Awards encourage, acknowledge and reward the valuable contributions that individuals, communities and businesses make throughout NSW & the ACT. The awards aim to recognise the achievements of inspirational Australians and provide positive role models for the community.

Kate O’Mara, Manager of Specials Projects, represented RDA Hunter on the 10 person judging panel and at the NSW/ACT Presentation Gala, where seven category finalists were acknowledged and award winners announced. The gala presentation was held at the Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains, a category sponsor, on Friday 25th November.

RDA Hunter congratulates the award finalists (listed below) and the winners of each category: Jordan’s Crossing Gazette, Pairtree Intelligence, Oberon Showground Land Managers, Ku-ring-gai Council, Jone Pavelic, Ronald McDonald House Charities Central West NSW, Vickie Burkinshaw.

We look forward to continuing to support initiatives like the Community Achievement Awards that recognise the valuable work happening in regions across Australia.
