As in previous years, lots of nominations were received and 88 awards were presented to young people, many of whom attended the awards ceremony. It was a truly fantastic evening with over 50 young people attending, supported by their friends, carers, social workers and personal advisers. The event had a red, black and gold theme with red carpet, balloons, photo screen, sports activities and a delicious buffet. Everyone was blown away by the young people’s achievements. The event also included an entertaining quiz about the Young Adult Council led by the VSK Apprentices (some tables were very competitive!) and a talk about the National Citizen Service by Ben Powell.
Awards presented at the ceremony included:
- Young people achieving excellent GCSE results
- Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards for our post 16 students
- Young Adult Council members received recognition for their commitment to the Council
- National Citizen Service Award
There were some really inspiring stories from these young people and they rightly deserved the recognition of their achievements!
Well done again to all the winners!
