Nominations are now open for the 2027 Boroondara Citizen of the Year Awards, giving residents the opportunity to recognise local people whose dedication, leadership and commitment help make Boroondara a better place to live.
The awards celebrate individuals of all ages who have made an exceptional contribution to the community, whether through volunteering, mentoring, community leadership, education, sport, environmental action, cultural initiatives, or other efforts that improve the lives of others.
Being an outstanding citizen can take many forms. It could be a neighbour who goes above and beyond to support others, a volunteer who gives countless hours to a local cause, a teacher inspiring the next generation, or a young person creating positive change in their community.
Award categories
There are 2 award categories:
- Boroondara Citizen of the Year
- Boroondara Young Citizen of the Year.
Community members are encouraged to nominate someone whose actions, achievements or long-term commitment have made a meaningful impact in Boroondara.
Nominations close at 5 pm on Friday 20 November 2026.
