Welcome to the Barnardos Australia's Mother of the Year Awards website
Most of us are lucky enough to have had a great mum. Whether she was funny, creative, quirky, hardworking or patient, who would we be today without her?
Nominations are now open for the 2009 Barnardos Australia's Mother of the Year Awards. So whether it’s your own mum – biological, step, foster or adoptive – your wife, partner, sister, friend, daughter, or someone in your local community, nominate her now and download a personalised certificate to show her how much she's appreciated. She could win a brand new car and if your nomination captures the spirit of the Awards and is chosen as 'Nomination of the Week' we'll send you a delicious prize.
Watch our TV Community Service Announcements calling for nominations.
