The Welwyn Hatfield Community Fund was proud to sponsor the second annual Welwyn Hatfield Youth Awards which took place on Thursday 2nd March. Young people from Welwyn Hatfield that had been nominated for awards were invited to the Campus West, alongside representatives from the local council, youth service providers and other VIP’s.

It was an evening to recognise and celebrate the achievements of local young people. There were nominations across 8 categories. Our own Trustees had the privilege of presenting 3 Awards; Young Environmentalist, Young Sportsperson and Young Musician of the year.  It was wonderful to hear about the achievements of the winners and the important parts they were playing in both their school and wider communities.

One of our Trustees; Chris Andrews, gave a short presentation about the Welwyn Hatfield Community Fund and the projects it has supported. Hopefully hearing about the benefits it has brought to the local community will inspire the next generation to invest their efforts into projects to help people living in Welwyn Hatfield.

The Welwyn Hatfield Community fund is a local fund to support the development of new opportunities for physical activity, health and well-being in the borough.  Applications are welcomed from not for profit organisations such as clubs, community groups, youth groups, educational establishments as well as individuals who want to set up a new activity or initiative.
