The plight of koalas has been part of the fabric of Jenny Hayesâ life for a long time.
For her work with Team Koala, working to protect the Tweed Coastâs vulnerable koala population, Ms Hayes was recognised as Citizen of the Year in the Tweed Shireâs Australia Day Awards on Tuesday.
While the past 12 months have been tough in so many ways for communities, the plight of koalas has not become any less urgent, Ms Hayes said.

âWeâve got climate change issues, weâve got a myriad of issues so we need to step up.
