Well done to the nominees who received an Honourable Mention in the Environment, Infrastructure and Recreation Local Heroes Award – Regional category, coming very close to winning one of the official prizes.

Naomi, Ben, Lee, Debbie and Leteisha from Cessnock City Council's Waste Management Centre were recognised for their extraordinary courage, teamwork and compassion during a workplace medical emergency in September 2025. When a colleague suffered a major heart attack, Naomi, Ben and Lee acted immediately, performing CPR and using a defibrillator to sustain his life until paramedics arrived, while Debbie and Leteisha coordinated vital support behind the scenes.

Paramedics confirmed their swift actions gave their colleague valuable extra time, allowing him to spend his final days with family. The facility remained operational during the incident, requiring staff to simultaneously manage members of the public onsite. Despite the distressing circumstances, the team remained calm, professional and supportive, demonstrating the very best of local government service.

Congratulations to Jerome Simpson and Josh Townsend from Armidale Regional Council for winning the Families, Health and Community Development Local Heroes Award – Regional.

Jerome and Josh led the introduction of the TradeMutt initiative by wearing brightly coloured hats designed to spark conversations about mental health. Their efforts quickly gained support from management and staff, leading to the rollout of over 400 TradeMutt shirts and hats across council workplaces and increased awareness of the TIACS counselling service for blue-collar workers.

Together, Jerome and Josh have helped create a more open, supportive, and connected workplace culture, encouraging staff to speak openly about wellbeing and seek help when needed. Their efforts have since expanded beyond council, inspiring local businesses and other councils to adopt similar mental health strategies. Through their leadership, Armidale has been recognised as a strong advocate for mental health awareness, demonstrating how a simple grassroots idea can create meaningful and lasting change across an entire community.
