THE community has an opportunity to celebrate the incredible women who volunteer their time to make a difference, by nominating them for the 2025 Hidden Treasures Honour Roll.
The Honour Roll, an initiative by the NSW Government, highlights the vital contributions of female volunteers across rural, regional and remote New South Wales.
Since its inception in 2010, over 1300 women have been recognised for their outstanding service and dedication to community life.
“We are incredibly fortunate to have so many women who give so generously of their time and talents to support others,” said Labor MP Jenny Aitchison.
“This is our chance to shine a spotlight on their selfless efforts and say thank you.”
Past Hunter recipients of the Honour Roll include well-known community volunteers Dawn Vallance, Christine Ostermann, June Gardner, Margaret Harvey and Christine Meyers.
Ms Aitchison encouraged individuals, community organisations and businesses to submit nominations.
Nominations for the 2025 Honour Roll are now open, with the final list to be celebrated later this year.
All nominees will be officially included in the Honour Roll and acknowledged for their contribution to their communities.
To nominate or learn more about eligibility, visit the Hidden Treasures Honour Roll website.
