Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal

At the invitation of the Government of Alberta, YWCA Lethbridge and District is honoured to accept nominations and host the Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal awards ceremony for outstanding community leaders.

The Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee Medal (Alberta) has been created to mark the 70th anniversary of Her Majesty’s accession to the throne as Queen of Canada. To celebrate this historic event, the Medal recognizes outstanding service from Albertans who have dedicated themselves to family, community and country. The Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee Medal will be awarded to 7,000 Albertans throughout 2022 in recognition of significant contributions to the province.

YWCA Lethbridge and District has been allocated 5 medals to nominate recipients for. This represents a wonderful opportunity for you to recognize community leaders who have made a significant impact on promoting and building gender equity locally.

Within this criteria, we hope you consider nominating individuals who:

– are leaders in their community;

– have made a significant impact on the local level; and

– are chosen from across Southern Alberta
