Nominations are closed

Nominations for the 2010 Barnardos Australia's Mother of the Year Awards have now closed.

We would like to thank everyone who nominated a great mum for sharing with us what makes that mum special to them. We have had an overwhelming response from the Australian public with nominations coming from every corner of the country, from all age groups and backgrounds. The judges now have the very difficult task of sorting through all the nominations to select the finalists for each state and territory. Judging day is on Thursday, 11 February 2010 and if you haven't heard from us by Monday, 15 March 2010 your nomination has not progressed to the final stages.

Thank you once again for contributing to the success of Barnardos Australia's Mother of the Year Awards. For regular updates on the awards program, finalist announcements and winners visit the News page or find us on Facebook.
