Gala Awards

Get ready for another unforgettable night! The Community Service Awards are back in 2025, bringing together the incredible people who make a real difference in our communities. Last time, we gathered under the shimmering lights of the Novotel Wollongong to celebrate the magic that keeps our most vulnerable supported, and this year promises to be even bigger and better!

From the Illawarra to the Far South Coast, community champions will once again unite to share stories of resilience, innovation, and dedication. With the ongoing pressures of natural disasters, economic uncertainty, and social challenges, demand for support services has skyrocketed—but so has the determination of those who step up to help. This event is a chance to honour their tireless work, recognise extraordinary achievements, and, of course, let loose and celebrate.

Expect an evening of inspiration, camaraderie, and well-deserved recognition. While awards will be handed out, every single person in the sector is a winner—because without their dedication, our communities wouldn’t be the same. So mark your calendars, dress to impress, and get ready to raise a glass to the true magic-makers among us. See you there!
