Decision

(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.
