25th November 2015 will see the presentation of the Shildon Young People’s Awards 2014/15 at the Shildon Civic Hall to reward the efforts of young people in Shildon.
Day after day, young people make a contribution to our society and far too often this goes unnoticed and unrewarded.
From sport to the arts, from the unknown to the extraordinary, Shildon Children and Young Peoples Action Network (SCYPAN) wants to say thank you to the young people who make a difference.
Kath Regan, SCYPAN said: “This is a chance for the public to make a contribution by nominating an individual or group for their achievements during 2014/15.
“Do you know a young person who is always helping others or a young person who has achieved their goal despite great disadvantage and obstacles? “Does your group have a leader who inspires you to go that extra mile? Do you know a young person who has excelled in sport?
“If the answer to any on these is yes, contact SCYPAN on 01388 772563 or email k.regan@shildon.gov.uk for a nomination form and criteria.”
Categories include Performing Arts Award; Creative Arts Award; Sports Award; Young Person’s Choice (Adult Award); School Award; Community Champion and the Chloe Clark Special Achievement and Recognition Award.
“Please recognise their achievements and give them the accolade they rightly deserve,” said Ms Regan.
The Shildon Young People’s Awards is supported by the SCYPAN, Livin, Tearaways Theatre Group and Shildon Town Council.
