This year marks the seventh year of the Cork County Mayor’s Community Awards Scheme. This awards scheme was introduced in the County to acknowledge publicly the work of volunteers and to recognise communities working in partnership with the Local Authority and other agencies to better our communities.
Cork County Councillors and PPN Secretariat Members can nominate organisations and individuals who would like to put themselves forward for this award.
If you or your organisation would like to be put forward for this award you should contact a County Councillor or a member of the PPN Secretariat.

Mayor of the County of Cork, Cllr Patrick Gerard Murphy will make eleven awards on the night including three each from North Cork, South Cork and West Cork. There will also be one overall Community and Voluntary Group award and one overall Individual award from within these nine award recipients.
Mayor Murphy is asking people and groups to contact their local Councillor or PPN representatives to suggest nominees,
“There are so many wonderful individuals and groups in Cork County that I want to afford recognition for the work they do. These awards are set to congratulate all those nominated on the enormous positives they are bringing to their communities and to promote further their commitment to their communities. Their selflessness, energy and enthusiasm are what these awards represent. I look forward to meeting each and every one of these communities and individuals on the night, which is set to be a wonderful community orientated and inclusive gathering.”
