Each year, St Michael’s Uniting Church presents two individuals with ‘The St Michael’s Medallions’ in recognition of their outstanding contribution to the community.
The award is designed to recognize individuals whose work assists in the prevention of violence, trauma and destructiveness or alternatively, promotes growth, health and well-being.
The Medallions are designed to be an encouraging voice in the community, affirming individuals whose outstanding work might remain unrecognized.
