Pocklington Community Volunteer Awards 2024
The Pocklington Community Volunteer Awards Ceremony is taking place at Pocklington Arts Centre on Friday 18th October 2024, 7pm – 9pm.
Nominate a volunteer, then join us at the ceremony. Your nomination will be judged on the quality in terms of volunteer impact only, not on the number of nominations received for the same person.
CATEGORIES
Young Volunteer Award – Under 25
This award recognises a young person (aged 25 and under) who has brought energy, dedication and commitment to their volunteering.
Sports and Active Volunteer Award
Volunteers are vital for sports clubs and activities to run. Volunteers give their time, enthusiasm and energy encouraging others to be physically active: from leading a walking group, to organising sporting events to weekly coaching.
Community Volunteer Award
This category recognises a volunteer who has volunteered in the community. They may be involved with an organisation or may be involved in all sorts of venues and groups; they may have inspired others in the community to get involved; or have been an encouragement and guiding light to others.
Volunteer Team Award
This category is open to any collective of volunteers who work as a team/group. The nature of the volunteering can fall into any of the other categories and recognises the work done by members working together in an organised and impactful way.
Behind the Scenes Volunteer Award
All groups and organisations will have those volunteers who work quietly ‘behind the scenes’ carrying out tasks such as: administration, refreshments, media work, grass cutting, setting up and tidying away etc. An invaluable member of any group!
Environmental Volunteer Award
These volunteers keep the community’s green spaces in impeccable condition for all to enjoy. Volunteers who work in these areas preserve and protect green spaces, as well as develop them for all to use.
