Nominate an amazing young person in the first London Youth Achievement Awards
Londoners are urged to nominate the young people making a difference in their city for the inaugural London Youth Achievement Awards.
The Awards are an opportunity for the London Assembly, in close collaboration with the London Youth Assembly (LYA), to recognise the valuable impact that young people make in the capital.
This awards programme will showcase and celebrate the breadth of inspirational activities and achievements accomplished by young people across London.
The categories are:
- Innovative Initiative Award
- Young Leader Award
- Greener London Award
- Young Carer or Care Leaver Award
- Community Safety award
- Youth Voice of London Award
- Inclusion and Diversity Award
- Outstanding Achievement Award
- Best Youth Campaign Award
- Young Media Champion Award
The deadline to nominate a young person for the award is 21 February.
The Awards will be presented at a City Hall ceremony in May.
Chair of the London Assembly, Andrew Boff AM, said:
“There are a huge number of young Londoners who make such a positive difference, but their achievements are not celebrated nearly as often as they should be.
“If you know a young person who is helping make your community and our city a better place to live, this is your chance to make sure they get the recognition they deserve.
“It only takes a few minutes to nominate someone and you can put them forward for as many categories as you wish. So please, don’t miss your chance to show a young Londoner some appreciation.”
