So many people in the Hastings District have devoted their time and energy to making a difference in our communities. Victim support volunteers, sport coaches, art enthusiasts; the list goes on.
Each year the Council recognises the voluntary service of individuals or groups/organisations through the Community Awards (Civic Honour Awards).
So how did we find out about these wonderful people? Through you!
Hastings residents have the opportunity to nominate individuals, groups or organisations who have made a special difference volunteering their services to the arts, culture, education, health, recreation, sport, welfare or youth of the Hastings District. These people/groups could be awarded a Civic Honour Award.

Nominations are open until 5pm on Friday, 17 February 2012.
Nominations will be considered by the new Civic Pride Committee before the awards are presented by the Mayor of Hastings, Lawrence Yule, at an Opera House function in April.
