Community Champion Award

The Community Champion Award celebrates young people aged 11–18 who give their time, energy and ideas to make their community a better place. Whether they organise, volunteer, fundraise or simply turn up when others don't, their contribution lifts everyone around them.

What we're looking for

• Active, sustained contribution to a local cause, group or neighbourhood
• Selfless commitment, giving time without expecting recognition
• Tangible difference others can see and feel
• A spirit that inspires peers to join in

Examples of nominees

A young volunteer at a food bank, a teen organising community clean-ups, a youth fundraiser for a local charity, or someone supporting elderly neighbours week after week.
