Nunawading was the 2012 winner of the “Emerging Leader Award”, presented by Mary Wooldridge MLA, the Minister for Community Services. This award was presented as part of the annual Victorian Disability Sector Awards held at Federation Square, to recognize those who have made significant contributions for people with a disability.
Few will have the greatness to bend history itself, but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total of all those acts will be written the history of this generation. It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a person stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, s/he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centres of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.
