Mr Cayzer was one of 23 recipients to receive the electorate awards from Member for Dubbo Troy Grant last week. 

The award recipient said he was just one of many in the small community who deserve the award, but is pleased Trangie are being recognised for the work that they do.

"You're only one of a dozen people on the committee who volunteer," he said.

"Everyone's really equal and does the same amount of work.

"We're very lucky out here there's plenty of people on committees, it's a town that really does a lot and is involved in everything and anything it can get into."

The Trangie Respite Centre officially opened on October 30 and is a community facility for people with disabilities, making accommodation available for those travelling long distances, and prevent the forced relocation of families looking for services for their dependants.  

The new facility comes after the community raised money to purchase St Mary’s Anglican Church, which has been renovated to compliment the new centre.

Mr Cayzer who is the Trangie Community Connections president said it's seeing the benefit for others in the wider community, which drives his passion for volunteering. 

"Being a small community like it is, you know the people personally who have the children with disabilities," Mr Cayzer said. 

"And just seeing the smiles on the faces of those with disabilities, and how proud they are about what that community have made for them … that's what you do it for, not your own personal gain, but for what those people get out of it.

"It's just such a good feeling to be part of the community and do things for people, and not expect anything.

"When they gave me the Citizen of the Year award I never in a million years thought that I would receive that."
