The 2019 Australia Day Awards will be presented at the annual Kempsey Shire Council ceremony held at the Slim Dusty Centre on Australia Day Eve Friday January 25 2019.

“We’ve had an increasing number of Award nominations in the last few years as people make a conscious effort to honour those who make a difference.
“Last years Citizen of the Year, Betty Green has continued to work tirelessly for the community. She was the patron of the Seniors Festival earlier in the year, even starring in the promotional video,” Mayor Campbell said.
