Nominations for the Australian of the Year Awards are currently open. We believe that you may frequently hear about incredible South Australians who go above and beyond.
They may be someone who deserves to be recognised for the extraordinary impact they have in our community – they could be a quiet achiever, a community hero, a volunteer, an advocate, a leader in their field of work, an entrepreneur or a changemaker.
Everyone is encouraged to submit a nomination – all it takes is one nomination for someone to be in the running for Australian of the Year.
Nomination is simple - visit australianoftheyear.org.au/nominate by 31 July 2023.
