Search for committed youth workers              10/11/14

 

Scotland’s National Agency for Youth Work is looking for nominees for the National Youth Worker of the Year Awards 2015 organised by YouthLink Scotland.

 

Last year, Katie Denehy of Barra was named Scotland’s Part-time Youth Worker of the Year.

 

Aileen Campbell, Minister for Children and Young People, said: “Every year the National Youth Worker of the Year Awards rightly celebrate the often-unseen heroes who do valuable work in our communities.

 

“In the past, these awards have recognised a very broad range of individuals who have shown a true commitment to youth work. I encourage everyone in the Western Isles to consider people in their community who could be nominated and I look forward to hearing more about the nominees and winners.”

 

The deadline for nominations for each of the 10 award categories is Thursday 18 December. An  event to announce the finalists will be held in Glasgow in March.
