Marlborough Community and Volunteer of the Year Awards August 2024
In partnership with the Marlborough District Council, Volunteer Marlborough celebrated local volunteers this week at the Marlborough Community and Volunteer of the Year Awards. This event recognises the outstanding contributions of individual volunteers as well as teams of volunteers who have made significant impacts on our community through their dedication and hard work. We were very happy to celebrate with our Chairman Bryn Evans who won the Community Pillar Award. We couldn't have said it better ourselves - thank you Bryn for all your hard work - we really appreciate you! |

They are constantly thinking of new ways to do things, encouraging and engaging with volunteers. The judges applauded Picton Dawn Chorus’s community-driven response to deal with a degraded environment and the results they’ve achieved". - Cawthron Marlborough Environment Awards Judges |
