Honorary Life Member
Honorary Life Member Nomination Form
The Honorary Life Member Program recognises people who have shown outstanding commitment to conserving, protecting and celebrating Queensland’s environmental, built and cultural heritage.
It’s our way of thanking those whose exceptional work has supported and shaped the direction of the National Trust in Queensland.
How to nominate
You can complete the nomination form online below or email it to info@nationaltrustqld.org. Nominations are open all year round.
Who can be nominated
Any living Australian citizen or permanent resident can be nominated. However, every nomination must be seconded by a current full member of the National Trust of Australia (Queensland).
What the committee looks for
The Nominations and Governance Committee will look for evidence that the nominee has shown exceptional commitment to the National Trust of Australia (Queensland), with outstanding achievements that have significantly shaped the organisation.
In particular, the nominee should have:
- Achieved at an exceptionally high level
- Contributed well beyond what was expected in their role, whether paid, unpaid or as a volunteer
- Supported the work of the National Trust in Queensland in a way that stands out, even among others who have made valuable contributions
How nominations are assessed
First, the Nominations and Governance Committee reviews each nomination. Then, the Board of the National Trust of Australia (Queensland) gives final approval. Successful nominations are usually announced at the Annual General Meeting. However, the Board may choose to announce them at another time.
Keeping nominations confidential
All nominations are confidential, and acceptance is not guaranteed. For this reason, we ask that you keep the nomination private and do not tell the nominee. We use the information you provide only to consider the nomination. All information is collected in line with our NTAQ Privacy Policy.
What happens next
If you nominated someone, we’ll let you know the outcome before the new Honorary Life Members are published in our Annual Report. The nominee will receive a letter from the President of the National Trust of Australia (Queensland) advising them of the outcome.
