 Paul HAMER (Box Hill) (13:27): Congratulations to an outstanding member of our community, Dilnaz Billimoria, on receiving the 2025 Victorian Seniors of the Year Award for promoting multiculturalism. This award recognises her outstanding dedication to empowering older Victorians from all backgrounds to feel heard, welcome and celebrated. For more than 20 years Dilnaz has strengthened community connection through her work with the Whitehorse Interfaith Network, the Communities’ Council on Ethnic Issues and Women’s Health East. She continues to bring together people of different faiths and cultures to promote understanding, inclusion and respect. Her energy, compassion and leadership have made a lasting difference, helping to create a more inclusive and connected Victoria. Congratulations, Dilnaz, and all the best for the future.
