A special award will be made to celebrate the 125th Anniversary of the Victorian Deaf Society.
The purpose of the award is to recognise the most outstanding contributions made to the Victorian Deaf Society since its inception and through the 125 years of its service. The award will be considered for each 25 year era/period of time.
Nominations will be called for, and in the case of the inaugural awards, the closing date for all nominations and all time periods will be Friday 26 February 2010.
The award can be made to individuals, groups or organisations, and can of course be made posthumously. In keeping with the importance and significance of the award, it is unlikely that there would be more than two or possibly three in any given period, indeed it may be that there is only one award for any given time-period.
You are welcome to download and print the nomination form below or fill in our online nomination form. Each nomination requires a seconder and must be completed by a person 18 years or older.
You may nominate any person, group or organisation for an award who you feel has contributed in some special way.
Once received the nomination will be examined and researched by the Awards Panel. You may be contacted to provide additional information for consideration.
Each recipient of the Award will receive an individual Award and be recorded on the Vicdeaf Roll of Honour which will be displayed at Vicdeaf.
