Update on Individual Nominations

Last week the St. James’s Place Committee met to discuss the individual nominees for the awards in October. This year we had more nominations than in previous years and drawing up the shortlist of those selected just gets harder. The stories are uplifting, heart-breaking and most of all, make us realise why the awards are held. The children and young adults are ‘outstanding’, courageous and extraordinarily brave, demonstrating qualities that people, much older than them would struggle to find. Names have now been chosen and all the people on the list will be contacted by the beginning of September. Thank you for all those people that nominated, without you we could not hold the awards.

Don’t forget you can still vote for your favourite Charitable Group or organisation in the Group Award here: https://www.yorkshirechildren.co.uk/nominations/group-vote/
This is open until the 12th October and the winner is announced on the night.
