Youth service celebration

Trafford CYPS held its annual evening of entertainment and celebration on the 21st January 2010 at the Waterside Robert Bolt Theatre in Sale.

This year we have seen an increase in the number of young people gaining national accreditation awards Youth Achievement, OCN (Open College Network), Arts awards, Duke of Edinburgh, First Aid and various others.

Around 150 local young people aged 13-19 in the Borough joined their Youth Workers, teachers' family and friends to mark their individual achievements in completing various nationally accredited award schemes.

The official awards were presented to the young people by Janet Callender the Chief Executive and Fiona Waddington, Joint Director, Children Young People & Families.

A select group of Young people were presented with an outstanding achievement award by the Youth Worker attached to their specific project, community or centre who had nominated them for their positive contribution to their project or where they have made significant changes to their lives.

For the first time the celebration evening saw Trafford's Youth Parliament election results being announced. Claire Kellett who is campaigning for more apprenticeships and training for young people and Shereen Patel who is campaigning for better equipment and services for the Disabled Children and young people are now elected members of Trafford's Youth parliament for Trafford.

Guests enjoyed entertainment from young people who are currently attending Gorse Hill studios'. This included a preview of a dance which Young People are performing at the British Street Dance Championship, and the wonderfully talented group 'The Ashtons' which were both a huge success.

The event was a great success and CYPS are looking forward to next year where we hope to see even more young people receive awards.
