Cheshire East Celebrating and Recognising Excellence Awards 2012

Nominations Now Open!

Celebrating the Achievements of Cared for Children and Care Leavers in Cheshire East.

On Sunday 4th November 2012, the 3rd annual Cheshire East Celebrating and Recognising Excellence (C.A.R.E) Awards event will be held to recognise the achievements of children and young people who are cared for by Cheshire East Council.

All our cared for children and young people are unique and work on their individual difficulties, often with considerable courage and determination.  We would like you to think about the children and young people you know or work with, and nominate them now if they have achieved anything from the beginning of September 2011 through to the end of August 2012.

Nominations are sought for children aged 5 years and over. Every nominated child and young person will receive a certificate recognising their achievement. A panel will consider all the nominations, from which 50 children and young people will be invited to the special celebration event at Tenants’ Hall, Tatton Park, Cheshire.

In order to be able to compare the nominations we receive, we are asking you to write a summary of achievement(s), using no more than 350 words.  As part of the ceremony, there will be several Outstanding Awards presented and one overall Mayor’s Award for Outstanding and Exceptional Achievement. If you feel the person you are nominating deserves an Outstanding Award, then please provide additional information on the nominations form.

To nominate a child or young person please complete our online nomination form.

Deadline for completed nominations is 5.00pm on Wednesday 12th September 2012.

If you require any additional information, please email care@cheshireeast.gov.uk or telephone 01270 375169.
