The Council Community Service Awards 2022 are awarded to individuals in recognition of their commitment, generosity and dedication within the Coromandel Peninsula.
Thames Coromandel District Council have developed the Community Service Awards to acknowledge the many people throughout the district who work quietly away at making our communities better places to live, often with little recognition and no pay.
