Otium was pleased to be a part of the 2023 Joint International Congress and thanks World Urban Parks and Parks and Leisure Australia, supported by Green Adelaide, for organising and hosting a great event that provided significant learning and networking opportunities with our industry colleagues.

We congratulate all the nominees and winners of the National Awards of Excellence, in particular:

  • Otium Managing Director Kate Maddock was delighted to present the David Aldous Emerging Leader Award to Jessie Carter.
  • We were excited for South Burnett Regional Council to receive the ‘Strategic and Master Planning Award’ for the Kingaroy Memorial Park and WJ Lang Memorial Pool Masterplan, a project that was undertaken as a collaborative process between Council officers, Otium Planning Group, Greenedge Design, Liquid Blu and Stantec.
  • We also congratulate Brimbank City Council for receiving the Environmental Stewardship Award and Community Facility of the Year Award for the Brimbank Aquatic and Wellness Centre, a project providing outstanding health and wellbeing outcomes for the community and one we were privileged to be a part of.
