“I / we support Awards Aware because... the achievements and qualifications young people secure through youth awards, and the opportunities youth awards provide for learning and positive progression, need to be more widely understood, recognised, celebrated and valued. Youth awards provide non-formal learning programmes and experiences that equip young people with essential skills for life and work. They complement and supplement the learning provided through formal education. For some young people they will have a life-changing impact. ”
Jim Duffy - Awards Network
“I / we support Awards Aware because...young people engage, participate and contribute to society in many different ways, including as volunteers. Through doing so the personal development they gain can be hugely beneficial. We want to help them to take advantage of the range of different youth awards that are available to them.”
