NOMINATIONS are starting to come in for the first ever Westbury Youth Awards, which will be held on Friday, March 10 at the Leigh Park Community Centre.
Any young person aged 18 and under living in the Westbury Community Area, which includes Westbury, Coulston, Edington, Bratton, Heywood, Hawkeridge and Dilton Marsh, can be nominated for an award. Nominations must be made before February 24.
Community Engagement Manager Liam Cripps said: “The event is about celebrating the achievements of the truly remarkable children and young people who live in the Westbury community area.
“We are aiming for an inspirational evening, celebrating the amazing achievements of our children and young people and showcasing their talent by entertaining the audience with dancing, singing and music.
“This event would not be possible without the support of local groups, organisations and businesses.
“If you would like to sponsor and present an award on the night and feature in the promotional materials please get in touch. The suggested sponsorship of an award is £100.”
