Heritage Places - The Carlisle Hotel

Do you know a Community Champion? Our Town is full of everyday people doing exceptional things – and each year we set out to celebrate them with a free awards night recognising local heroes who volunteer their time and expertise in our community. We know countless people in our community who fit the bill, and we know they don't always love the spotlight... That's why we need your help to bring them forward and recognise them!
