GLENRAC Inc. had a happy beginning for 2025 by being recognised as the ‘Volunteer Community Organisation of the Year’ at the 2025 Glen Innes Severn Council Australia Day Awards Ceremony, held at the Glen Innes Services Club on 26 January 2025.

GLENRAC’s volunteer Committee of Management Chair, Julie Firth, said “GLENRAC is honoured to receive the award.”

“Thanks to everyone involved in the Australia Day Awards process and our Committee of Management members for helping to make GLENRAC such a respected and trusted organisation in our region”, Julie continued.

“To be recognised amongst so many wonderful, nominated volunteer groups is a privilege and shows the amazing community spirit of the people in our Local Government Area.”
