Today I congratulate one of my constituents, Nicholas Chambers, for receiving an Northern Beaches Council Outstanding Community Service Award at this year's Australia Day awards ceremony.
Nicholas has shown ongoing dedication and commitment to his community through his work as vice president of junior cricket at the Cromer Cricket Club. Nicholas organises events in partnership with local schools to encourage young students to get involved in the awesome sport that is cricket. He has helped oversee a significant boost in engagement for the boys and girls junior cricket teams from fewer than 20 players to now almost 100 players. How amazing! Previously Nicholas won the Individual Achievement Award – Youth in the Northern Beaches Eco Awards 2023 for his efforts to get more young people involved in conservation. He is a man of many talents. Nicholas continues to be a strong advocate for the environment and volunteers his time with local organisations to support environmental awareness. I congratulate Nicholas on an award well deserved. May he keep up the good work, and I will see him on the cricket field next Sunday.
