Nominations for the 2026 Community Awards are now officially open! 🥳

Much like the Australian of the Year Awards set to be announced over the weekend, the Community Awards are our very own localised version, where we invite the Macedon Ranges community to nominate those who go above and beyond to make our beautiful shire a better place 🙌

Some incredible individuals and groups were nominated and recognised in the awards' inaugural year last year, and we'll be spotlighting each of the different categories over the coming weeks. But if you know someone who may not seek recognition, but deserves it, we encourage you to put their name forward 🫵

Nominations close on Sunday 22 February 2026. For more info and to nominate, visit mrsc.vic.gov.au/Community-Awards 🔗
