Call for Walk of Fame nominations

Do you know a high achiever who deserves recognition?

The City of Joondalup is calling for nominations for the second round of inductees into its Walk of Fame.

Members of the community are asked to nominate someone with ties to the City of Joondalup who they think should be recognised alongside inaugural inductees: Brian Bratich, Jessica Bratich-Johnson, Casey Dellacqua, Greg Hire, David Hussey, Mike Hussey, Justin Langer, Michael Malone, Matt Priddis, Daniel Ricciardo and Shaun Tan.

Each Walk of Fame member has their name inscribed on a paver in Central Walk.

The pavers are located at the Boas Avenue end of the thoroughfare with a view to extend the walk to Reid Promenade in the years ahead.

The Walk of Fame was first proposed by Cr Russ Fishwick who wanted to publicly recognise members of the Joondalup community who have achieved success at an elite level.

Joondalup Mayor Albert Jacob said despite the City being less than 25 years old, many high-achieving members of the community had made significant impacts at a local, national and international level.

“Joondalup is a City that encourages its community members – no matter what area of interest they have – to follow their dreams,” he said.

“I hope the inaugural list of inductees inspires people to nominate more of our high achievers across all walks of life. I look forward to hearing from our community on who they think should be considered for this unique Joondalup accolade.”

Among the selection criteria, recipients must have resided in the City for over five years and /or attended a school within the City for more than five years.

Nominations can be submitted online until Tuesday 3 January 2023.

The profiles of all 11 current Walk of Fame members can be viewed via a QR code at the location or at WOF.
