While the Butler Trust’s Annual Awards are for outstanding individuals – the Kathy Biggar Trophy is for notable community-based initiatives (probation and youth justice), which have brought significant benefits locally, and could be rolled out more widely. All submissions for the Trophy are added to this site – and the latest submissions and winners are listed below. For more information, visit the Butler Trust website.
