The Western Australian Water Awards Dinner Water for Tomorrow — Inspiring, Connecting, Transforming is the highlight of the WA water sector's annual calendar. Join us for an elegant evening celebrating the people, partnerships and ideas shaping a sustainable water future, aligned with AWA’s Strategy 2030. This prestigious event celebrates the outstanding achievements of innovative individuals and organisations. It's a wonderful opportunity to connect with friends and colleagues across the water sector, to celebrate a sector dedicated to making a difference and reflect on the past year over a delicious dinner.

James T Webb is an Elder from the Noongar First Nation community of the South West of WA. James will provide us with a Welcome To Country.  

We will be entertained this year with musical duo and water sector legends, Stephen Beckwith and Suzanne Brown. 

Wateraid Australia's WA Fundraising Committee will be again raising awareness of their work and fundraising at the event with their spinning wheel offering some great prizes. Anyone interested in sponsoring Wateraid at the event can contact Margaret TemelkovskiWater Sector Partnerships Lead at Wateraid Australia (Melbourne).
