BEST FRONTLINE WORKER AWARD This award is sponsored by Boral

Acknowledging the challenging year that we’ve had with the South Australian and national bushfires and the Covid-19 crisis, this award recognises the efforts of those workers on the front-line. This award honours a resident or worker in the Playford Alive area who is a real local hero by demonstrating exceptional commitment and work ethic throughout these times in a frontline capacity; this could be in a paid or volunteer role. Individual award.

Playford Alive is a community and urban renewal project comprising new developments in Munno Para, Andrews Farm and Eyre, as well as the existing suburbs of Smithfield Plains and Davoren Park. Awards are open to individuals and organisations making a difference in the community that live or work within Playford Alive.

The 2020 awards acknowledge the year that we’ve had with the bushfires and Covid-19 situation. As a result, we’ll be doing things a little differently. Just for this year, we’ll be tweaking our award categories to make them relevant to the current circumstances.

We’re even creating a new award to recognise Front Line workers and their contribution during these uncertain times.
