Each and every day throughout Townsville there are countless senior residents who volunteer their time, contributing to the wellbeing of the Townsville community. Across our community, these volunteers connect people and provide services to others. The knowledge, skill, commitment and energy displayed by Townsville's senior residents is overwhelming.

These volunteers give their time, energy and skills without seeking public recognition or accolades for their contribution. The Townsville City Council Senior Awards have been designed to provide public thanks to those quite achieving seniors who give so much to our city.

Award presentations will be held during the Townsville City Council’s Seniors Picnic in the Park and Lifestyle Expo to
be held in Sherriff Park, Mundingburra, on Wednesday 24 August 2011 from 10am – 1.30pm.
