“The Discover Ashfield Awards are our chance to really give back to the people, community groups, and businesses that make Ashfield such a wonderful place to live, work, visit, learn, and stay. These awards started with just four categories so it is testament to the popularity of them, that they have now grown to 20 categories. Make sure you get your nominations in and lets make these awards the best yet.”
