The Lord Mayor of York and Play Team are launching an exciting new award to recognise and celebrate the achievements of children and young people around York.

There are 10 awards, which are separated into five different catergories which are Parks and Environment, Sport and Active Leisure, Arts and Culture, Libraries and Archives, and Play.
