  • Your details

    This section is for your contact details. Once you have submitted the form we will send you a copy of your nomination. If needed, we will use these contact details to follow up on your nomination.
  • Nominee details

    This section is about the person you're nominating (the nominee).
  • Nomination

    It's important that you give as much detail as possible about why you're nominating this person and what they have achieved. Focus on what makes them standout against others.
  • The emphasis should be on how actively involved the young person has been in their community. It could include their involvement in policy decision-making that affects them.

    It might help to think about the following questions:

    • How have they demonstrated service worthy of recognition?
    • How has their contribution impacted on a particular field, locality, group or community?
    • What period of time have they made a major contribution?
    • Has their contribution been recognised elsewhere? (eg. in the media, by other awards, or groups)

    If your nominee is awarded a Youth Services Award, we might use this information alongside the announcement.
