Waimakariri District Council holds a Community Service Awards ceremony every year to celebrate the people who have made notable contributions to our District.

The awards are a great way of formally recognising the substantial voluntary service that hard-working and dedicated people give for the benefit of the community.

They recognise people who go above and beyond in many areas such as recreation, sport, health, youth, education, art, welfare and more.

Mayor Dan Gordon says "There are a lot of people doing tremendous work in the Waimakariri District. Many fly under the radar without recognition, however, we would like to acknowledge these people, their considerable contributions and give them our thanks."

If you know someone who works tirelessly volunteering their time for the greater good, this is a chance to thank them for all that they do.

Nomination forms can be picked up from any Council Service Centre or Library. The form can also be downloaded from our website here.

Nominations must be received before 5pm Friday 18 September.

Award recipients will be announced at an invitational ceremony at the Rangiora Town Hall on Tuesday 10 November 2020.
