TALENTED youngsters from across North Yorkshire could be among those receiving accolades in November.

The Yorkshire Young Achievers Award is the only public award of its kind in the country, and was established ten years ago.

Nominations are now being sought for anyone under 35. The categories include unsung hero, for outstanding public service, personality of the year, and youngster of the year for children aged 12 and under. The awards ceremony will raise money for leading children's charity NCH who work with vulnerable children and young people across Yorkshire.

Nomination forms are available from Hilary Conway on (01748) 829100.
