Lord Faulkner Young Volunteer Award
The HRA Lord Faulkner Young Volunteer Award
Criteria:
Awarded to a volunteer under the age of 26, for significant achievement and development that has made a demonstrable impact to both their own development and that of the heritage rail organisation where they work.
Your entry should:
- Explain the journey that the young person has been on to reach their current level
- What they’ve learnt so far in their heritage rail journey and what direction their future is heading in
- Describe how volunteering has helped them meet personal goals, or given them new opportunities in their career
Don’t forget to tell us about how they’ve integrated into your organisation and the importance of their contribution.
(Note: All shortlisted entries will receive a ‘HRA special commendation’).
TOP TIP: It's normally easier to work on your draft submission in a text document then paste it into the submission form when you're ready. Be clear and concise, use bullet points if neccessary.
