Try Angle Awards 2019 - Recognising the Efforts & Achievements of Young People in Our Community

Do you know a young person who really does try to do their best?

If you do, perhaps their efforts should be rewarded by recognition at the annual Try Angle Awards organised by KCC.

The awards, which are in their 25th anniversary year, raise the profile of young people aged between 11-18 years (up to 25 years with additional needs) in their community who try really hard, often with little recognition.

All nominations receive a recognition certificate and are entered into district finals. Three nominees in each category and their guests are invited to the Spirit of Try Angle County Final where the overall winner is announced.

The efforts and achievements of young people are divided into these 8 categories:

Arts - for personal achievement in arts, in any form.

Music - for personal achievement in music, in any form.

Sport or outdoor activities - recognising achievement in any sport or outdoor activity, demonstrating fair play and commitment. 

Community action - marking a contribution made to a community e.g. school councils, youth forums, charity work, environmental project and campaigns.

Good friends and young carers - recognising those who spend time being a good friend, mentor or carer to another in their family or community.

Personal development - for special achievement in education, training or other activities, making changes to improve.

Courage - recognising acts of courage displayed with coping bravely with illness or other adversity.

Positive intervention - where an individual or group has prevented harm, bullying, discrimination or damage.

Nominations for 2019 are now open until Sunday 30th June 2019. Anyone can nominate a young person for an award.
