Volunteer Awards 2022
The seventh annual Tasmanian Volunteering Awards are the only state-wide awards program showcasing inspiring stories and recognising excellence in volunteering – from individuals, groups and organisations.
By recognising our volunteers, we promote the importance of, and send a powerful message about, the value of volunteering, and the important contribution our 297,000 volunteers make towards building stronger, healthier and more resilient communities.
After another challenging year for many people, there is no better time to thank, recognise and acknowledge the incredible efforts of volunteers, volunteer managers and organisations. Their contributions are keeping Tasmanian communities supported and connected.
Note: Volunteering activities must have occurred within the time period of April 2021 to March 2022.

The Lifetime Achievement Volunteer Award is in recognition of an individual’s exemplary long-term commitment to volunteering. It is presented in recognition of outstanding contribution accumulated over a minimum of 25 years. This award celebrates an individual who has an established history of distinguished service across any category of volunteering, someone who has exhibited community spirit and provided inspiration to others, and who has positively influenced the community or communities they have volunteered in.
The Youth Volunteer Award recognises the positive difference young volunteers between 0-25 years old make to Tasmania. Young volunteers contribute to our communities in many ways. From sports and the arts, to health care, to emergency services, to social welfare and the environment, young volunteers play an active role in every aspect of community life. We encourage community leaders and members to nominate a young person who has made an outstanding voluntary commitment and who, through their volunteering, has positively impacted the lives of others.
An independent judging panel will meet to discuss each category, and a maximum of three finalists for each category will be chosen.
Finalists will be notified via email/phone by May 2022. All finalists, their nominators, and a representative from the volunteer organisation will be invited to attend the awards ceremony on Friday, 20 May 2022.
Everyone nominated will receive a Certificate of Appreciation from Volunteering Tasmania.
