The Try Angle Awards recognise the outstanding efforts and achievements of young people and groups who really try their best whether at school, work, college, in business or in their wider community across Kent.
Any young person or group of young people aged 11 to 18 or 11 to 25 (with special educational needs) from Kent can be nominated for an award.
All young people nominated receive a certificate, with many going on to be recognised with District Try Angle Awards, before the final Spirit of Try Angle Awards which will take place in March 2022.
There are 8 award categories are:
Arts: recognising personal achievement in the arts, in any form.
Community action: recognising the contribution made to the community or in such initiatives as school councils, youth forums, charities or environmental projects.
Courage: recognising acts of courage displayed in coping bravely with illness or other adversity.
Good friends and young carers: recognising those who spend time being a good friend or carer to another in their family or the local community.
Music: recognising personal achievement in music in any form.
Personal development: recognising special achievement in education, training, or other activities not covered in other categories.
Positive intervention: recognising an intervention where an individual or group has prevented harm, bullying, discrimination or damage.
Sport or outdoor activities: recognising personal achievement in a sport or outdoor activity, demonstrating sportsmanship, fair play and commitment.
The deadline to nominate a young person or group is Friday 5th November 2021.
All those nominated will receive recognition, and many of those go on to be our district category winners. Following judging, the final 24 nominees will be invited to the Spirit of Try Angle Awards county final.
