Get nominating!

This year, thanks to the work of our awesome 2018 co-design group made up of eight young people, we are keeping the nomination form for young people and will be introducing an online form too. Download or access the relevant nomination form below (deadline 5pm 26th November):

A few points to consider:

  • It’s youth work not children’s work so particular consideration to those working with seniors, company section and young leaders
  • There is the Lifetime Achievement category but please remember that there are many categories and people don’t necessary need to be of a certain age or experienced to be doing great work
  • There are several categories to choose from including community-based youth work, faith-based youth work and volunteer youth worker. The full list is above
  • It’s important (mandatory) to include the voice of a young person in the nomination.
