Young Citizen Of The Year

Conor Coady has kick-started this year’s bid to find the city’s Young Citizen of the Year.

This year’s awards were officially launched at Wolves’ training ground along with the Deputy Mayor, councillors, judges and a former winners.

Coady said: “I am delighted to support these awards which recognise and celebrate young people who go the extra mile to help others.”

Organised by the city’s five Rotary clubs, in partnership with the City Council, Express & Star, Wolves, Waitrose and The Way Youth Zone, the awards are now in their fifth year.

They recognise youngsters aged 14-19 who have made a significant contribution to the city and celebrate their achievements.

Anyone can nominate a young person who lives, goes to school or works within the borough of Wolverhampton.

Nomination forms are also available from the Civic Centre and Waitrose on Penn Road and entries are open until the end of May.
