Every month our focus group works with youth workers to nominate a young person from one of our projects to receive a Jack Petchey award for achievement. They receive £300 to spend on an event with at least 9 other young people.
This means that we can give lots of our young people opportunities to experience new things such as, Go Karting, Paintballing and Go Ape.
Winners are given the opportunity to attend a regional presentation event.
