The Youth Service Oscars award categories are based on educational themes delivered as part of youth work. There are a range of themes such as;
- health and wellbeing,
- identity,
- drugs and alcohol,
- good relations,
- gender,
- culture,
- mental health.
The awards are run entirely by young people and there are entries from across the province.
Staff from the Youth Work Policy Team presented an award at the event. It was very professionally organised with a real ‘Oscars’ feel. The ceremony concluded in awards for the best film, photography and original music.
Highlights of the ceremony can be accessed on the EA Youth Service facebook page
