The Community Engagement Award recognises outstanding initiatives and individuals that create meaningful connections with local communities across Australia. It celebrates those in the caravan and camping industry who go beyond typical operations to foster genuine relationships and create positive impact.
The award recognises the dedication, innovation and leadership of industry members committed to authentic community connections, shared value and meaningful local impact. Eligible contributions include programs that support local charities or events, initiatives that celebrate local heritage and culture, employment or skills development programs for community members, and responses to community needs during natural disasters or times of hardship.
By recognising these contributions, the award aims to inspire others in the industry to invest in community betterment and strengthen the bond between industry operators and the communities they call home.
The award is presented annually at the National Conference Gala Dinner.
