The awards recognise children and young adults who have helped people in their local communities and beyond by giving first aid, befriending vulnerable people, fundraising and campaigning for good causes.
This year the theme of the award is ‘making a difference matters’. Nominations are invited for people aged 25 or under, and both individuals and groups of young people are eligible.
The four award categories are:

There is an award for each category, in addition to an overall winner.  The charity encourages nominations to be accompanied by a photo of video to help bring the story to life.

“Following the brilliant entries received for last year’s Humanitarian Awards, we’re excited to see the heroic work that young people have carried out over the last year. We are also pleased to add a new video category to the photography competition and look forward to seeing how this year’s theme is captured through the power of photography and video. Good luck to all this year’s entrants!”

Nominations for the 2016 awards are open until 7 August 2016.
Winners of the Humanitarian Award and the photography and video competition will be announced at an awards ceremony at the House of Commons, Palace of Westminster on Tuesday 15 November 2016.
