Mr Singh hosted an awards presentation at his electorate office to coincide with the recent NSW Seniors Festival.
“I thank all of our remarkable recipients for helping to make the Coffs Coast the best it can be through their sheer determination to make a positive difference to people’s lives,” Mr Singh said.
“I’m proud of them all for their vital work and outreach across our community, putting others ahead of themselves in the process.
