George Capsis has received a NSW Government Community Service award for his support of some of the most vulnerable and marginalised in our community.
The NSW Government Community Service Award recognises individuals in NSW who have substantially helped to improve the quality of life of members of their community. This is beyond what would reasonably be expected in their usual occupation.
George founded Community Outreach Ministries in 1987 and has provided support to people disadvantaged by mental illness, homelessness, drug or alcohol abuse, suicide and family crisis.
In 2006 George received the Order of Australia Medal for his service to the community through the Community Outreach Ministries.
Each year Community Outreach Ministries holds an event in Cronulla to promote crucial public issues. This May, the “Good News Day” event highlighted people with disability and the work of their carers.
George has also represented the community in his role as a Sutherland Shire Councillor from 2008 to 2012 and was elected to the role of deputy mayor in 2011/2012.
George also served for a period of 17 years from 1986 as the Cronulla Sharks Rugby League team chaplain.
George is an active member of his community and is a deserving recipient of the NSW Government Community Service Award.

Our hearts go out to the victims, their families and loved ones.
The NSW Opposition expresses our gratitude to our police, health workers, other first responders and members of the public, and particularly to those who displayed extraordinary bravery in the face of tragedy.
We pray for the speedy recovery of those in hospital tonight.
Now, and in the coming days and weeks, it’s important that those affected by this tragedy receive the care and support they need.
As a community we’ll need to come together to support those who have suffered injury, loss and trauma today.

Where is the premier of the state not a good look for the premier not to face up to the camera's
Where's the premier of nsw a no show premier when the public are looking for leadership and support for the survivors
My sincerest condolences to the families and friends of the deceased and injured 😔
My Question is where was the premier of the state and deputy premier why didn't they both show their faces to the media where they're hiding away from the media ? Not a good look for the state of NSW

Schools like Crawford Public School Doonside shouldn’t have to go to the media to secure funding promised by the Minns Labor Government.
But this is the reality of $148 million of cuts to public schools.
The Government needs to reverse these cuts now and back our kids. ... See MoreSee Less
