You Deserve a Medal
Do you know someone who deserves a medal?
Osteoporosis New Zealand wants to hear about those special older people, your heroes, who inspire you and others through their active healthy lifestyles – those people who eat well, with a calcium-rich diet, and are exercising, whether at an organised class of Tai Chi, aqua-robics or active in the local tramping club. Perhaps they have their own exercise regime and you see them cycling by every morning at breakfast time, or walking briskly up the road after lunch with a group of friends?
This is your opportunity to nominate an inspirational person in the community – so nominate them now.
They could win one of our annual awards and travel to Wellington to be presented with their medal at the ‘You Deserve a Medal’ ceremony at Parliament in August.
Our only requirements are that they are over 65 years, resident in New Zealand and are happy to have their story told in the media.
Judging will be carried out by a panel consisting of members of the Board of Osteoporosis New Zealand and sponsors. The panel’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into. The finalists will be required to travel to Wellington. Reasonable travel costs will be covered.
