Do you know someone creating a better future for your community?

For the next six months, Sensis will be on the hunt for Australians Creating a Better Future to grace the covers of the 2011/12 Yellow Pages® and White Pages® books across regional and metro Australia.

 The annual ‘Covers’ program recognises the achievements of local heroes by featuring them on the cover of Yellow Pages® and White Pages®  books in 59 regions across Australia.

 Now, more than ever, we are seeing Australians from all walks of life that are passionate about creating a better future. Their contributions are priceless in helping to sustain vibrant local communities and we want to celebrate their hard work and success by featuring them on the cover of our print directories.

 Sensis is searching for people who are thinking beyond themselves and making positive contributions to their local and wider communities from an economic, social and environmental standpoint.

 This month, Sensis is looking for Australians Creating a Better Future in Dubbo, Bathurst, Kempsey, Taree, Port Macquarie, Tamworth, Windsor, Beaudesert, Roma, Toowoomba, Launceston, Albury, Barossa Valley, Shepparton and Wangaratta.

 However, if you have a suggestion for another area, we would love to hear it now.

 The Australians Creating a Better Future theme allows Sensis to demonstrate its commitment to sustainability and compliments the recent carbon neutral certification of our print and online directories under the Australian Government’s Greenhouse Friendly™ program. 

 Anyone can nominate a community member for the cover of their 2011/12 Yellow Pages® and White Pages® book, and this year, it couldn’t be easier. All you need to do is visit the Nominations form page on this site.

The nominee must fit the theme’s criteria in one or more of the following ways:

  • Undertaken projects/ activities to reduce environmental impact, conserve or protect the local environment
  • Made a positive contribution to the local economy through employment or use of local resources and suppliers
  • Undertaken projects / activities that have contributed positively to the future prosperity of the local community in terms of social and/or financial health
  • Acted for the common good with a focus on the future as well as today
