2017 National Disability Awards Now Open

Do you know someone who is bringing about a change for people with disability?

A nomination for a National Disability Award is a great way to honour individuals and organisations that raise awareness of disability issues within our community.

Help us celebrate those Australians who work tirelessly to reduce social discrimination and uphold the rights of people with disability.

Here's a picture of Maurice Corcoran AM, SA, 2016 Winner, Lesley Hall Leadership Award.
