·

Melbourne man Nicolas Paul Zervos has been named the 2024 Kastellorizian of the Year by the Kastellorizian Association of Victoria (KAV).

Mr Zervos was recognised for his contribution and loyalty to the Kastellorizian community as a figure who formally lobbies both state and federal governments on pressing issues for Greek Australians.

These efforts have not only bettered the lives of Greek Australians but fortified the bond between Greece and Australia.

Nicolas has conducted a plethora of voluntary work in the wider legal profession, including the free services he has provided for the KAV over the last 35 years.

The award recipient enthusiastically received the news of his nomination and was overwhelmed and honoured to be associated with past distinguished nominees of the prestigious award.
