NATIONAL TRUST OF QUEENSLAND
BENDIGO BANK HERITAGE AWARDS - 2011

The community of Queensland is invited each year to participate in the
NTQ Bendigo Bank Heritage Awards.

The National Trust of Queensland welcomes nominations from individuals, businesses, government authorities, professional bodies and community organisations. There are no nomination entry fees.

The National Trust, Bendigo Bank and the Queensland Heritage Council dedicate these awards to everyone in the community who contributes to the conservation and enjoyment of Queensland's heritage. The Awards recognise achievements in identifying, conserving and promoting our cultural heritage.

Previously known as the John Herbert Memorial Awards, in 2004 the awards were renamed and an overall winning certificate is named the John Herbert Memorial Award in honour of the late Honourable John Herbert MLA, President of the National Trust from 1971 to 1974.
