Tryangle Awards

The Tryangle Awards 2011 for Worcestershire are now open for nominations.

While the rest of the county is counting down to Christmas, Worcestershire County Council is counting down to receiving this year's annual Tryangle Awards nominations, launched on 1 December.

The county council is once again asking for nominations for any young person, aged between 11 and 19 years old, whose good work, courage or achievement would otherwise go unrecognised.

And it is making it even easier for people in Worcestershire to make their nominations, by inviting them to do it online via www.youthworcs.org.uk/tryangle

Nominations for the awards – which are in their sixth year – are welcome from anyone who is involved with young people, such as teachers, youth workers, sports coaches and volunteers, even family and friends put a young person forward for an award.

Councillor Marcus Hart, Worcestershire County Council's cabinet member for education said: "The Tryangle Awards offer an excellent opportunity to put into the spotlight many young people who so often go unrecognised. The awards are a chance for us all to give those unsung heroes the recognition they deserve and highlight the hard work and value they bring to their communities here in Worcestershire.

"Now we need the help of Worcestershire's residents to put that spotlight on them."

People interested in finding out more or making a nomination should call Worcestershire County Council's Youth Support on 01905 765417.
