This award recognises and celebrates the leadership and contributions made by hundreds of people around Western Australia.

The Town Team approach is innovative, creative and fun. But it has serious intent behind it: promoting grassroots #democracy, creating thriving, #liveable and #loveable places and supporting the positive people making a difference in their communities.
