Do you know a community in Hornsby Shire who have helped to prepare for, respond to and recover from disasters?
Nominations for the NSW Government’s Get Ready Community Award 2022 are now open.
Through the pandemic, bushfires and floods, the people of our Shire have grown great strength in supporting one another and we would like to encourage you to nominate a group for this year’s award.

- Show how members worked collaboratively to address a need or issue
- Feature strong partnerships between people and groups across the community
- Strengthen the resilience of the local community through participation in planning, preparation, response and/or recovery.
