Outstanding volunteer recognised with Ray Tonkin award
The Heritage Council of Victoria recognises individuals for outstanding volunteer service to heritage with the Ray Tonkin Heritage Volunteer Award.
We would like to congratulate the recipient of this year’s Award, Mr John Hulm for his herculean efforts in protecting, preserving and promoting the Camperdown Clocktower for current and future generations.
You can learn more about this place from the VHD or visit the Finlay Avenue of Elms, Manifold Clock Tower and Public Monument Precinct in Camperdown (H0647).
In addition to a framed certificate, Mr John Hulm has been invited to nominate a recipient organisation for a $2000 heritage project donation from the Heritage Council.
The Ray Tonkin Award, named after the former Executive Director of Heritage Victoria, was created eight years ago by the Heritage Council of Victoria in recognition of the significant role volunteers play in the maintenance and preservation of Victoria’s cultural heritage.
It is awarded on merit to individuals who have displayed an outstanding commitment and service to heritage in Victoria.
