    “It was a huge honour to receive this award last year. It was not just receiving the award but also that our volunteers recognised the amount of work that goes on in the background for our events to be successful for the Boroondara community. Boorondara Neighbourhood Watch had been dormant for a number of years and it is only 3 years ago that I, along with the BNHW committee, felt we needed to be seen to be active in this LGA again. I recognise that I would not have received this award if it had not been for the commitment of our volunteers. The award also reflects the strong support we receive from Inspector Noy and the crime liaison officers at Boroondara police."
