West Moors Parish Council Legacy Award is offering the opportunity for a young person to receive an award of up to £1,000 in 2015/2016.
The award was set up three years ago, to commemorate 2012 as a special year celebrating the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and the London Olympics. The West Moors Parish Council commemorated these two events by helping a young person from the village to achieve their potential. The criteria this year has been widened to increase eligibility and now includes the arts and music as well as sport.
Are you, or do you know of, an aspiring young person between 11 and 17 years old with one or more abilities developed to a level significantly ahead of their year group (or with the potential to develop those abilities)? Do you, or the nominated person, need financial help with achieving the chosen ambition?
The grant of up to £1,000 can be put towards travelling, equipment and coaching or training costs.
Applications close on 27 November 2015, so get fill out a form as soon as you can. Terms and conditions apply.
