The Green, Dormanstown, Redcar TS10 5NA

Following the huge success of last year’s Volunteer Awards we are once again presenting the awards followed by Afternoon Tea in the marquee in beautiful setting of Westfield Farm.

CATEGORIES

There are 8 categories this year and once again we have not included a generic “Adult Volunteer” category so nominators will have to think about which category best suits their volunteer/team. You can find the electronic nomination form on our website, simply complete and press submit by: Tuesday 31st May 2016.

VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR

A volunteer who has “gone the extra mile” this year – this could be by the amount of time they have dedicated to their particular project or the difference they have made to the lives of their service users.

YOUNG VOLUNTEER/TEAM (under 21)

Do you know a young volunteer/team who has exemplified all that is good in our young people i.e. by representation, inter- generational initiatives, involvement in their community.

COMMUNITY SAFETY CHAMPION/TEAM

We are looking for a person/team in your community who makes your neighbourhood a ‘safer place to be’ e.g. neighbourhood watch, campaigning for facilities.

HEALTH & WELLBEING CHAMPION/TEAM

This individual/team would have had a direct effect on the physical/mental health or lifestyle of residents of Redcar & Cleveland. Examples could include befriending, sports clubs, health support groups, etc.

INNOVATION AWARD

An individual or group which has demonstrated innovative approaches or enterprise in tackling an issue within their community.

ENVIRONMENTAL CHAMPION/TEAM

This individual/team would have had a direct effect on the appearance of your community. Examples could include Litter picking, conservation or gardening etc.

RCVDA LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD

OUTSTANDING COMMUNITY GROUP AWARD

A group/team who has dedicated years of effective service to the community/project they are passionate about.

YOUR NOMINATION

Please give some time to writing a pen portrait of your nomination. The judges can only make a decision based on what you write so the more detail of the qualities of your volunteer/team the better chance they have of winning the award.
A few tips for writing a winning nomination:

All nominated volunteers will receive a certificate and those shortlisted (and their nominator) will receive an invitation to the event.

Please submit nominations to RCVDA by Tuesday 31st May 2016

Good luck everyone!
