(Report of Chief Executive)
Member approval was sought on a Community Awards Scheme which would recognise and celebrate individuals, groups and organisations who had made outstanding contributions through volunteering or initiatives that improved the lives of others.
In terms of the categories of award, it was suggested that the ‘Individual volunteer of the year’ and ‘Young community champion’ categories be broken down further into age groups.
Following consideration by the Communities and Environment Scrutiny Select Committee, the Cabinet Member for Community Services
RESOLVED: That:
(1) the Community Awards Scheme for Tonbridge and Malling, be approved; and
(2) the categories of awards and the nomination process, as set out in the report, be agreed.
