Bellingen & Seaboard Youth Services

To celebrate National Youth Week 2009, Bellingen and Seaboard Youth Services in conjunction with the Bellingen Shire Courier Sun are working on a feature that will highlight the positive contribution made by young people to our community. 

We would like to invite groups, services, workplaces and individuals to nominate young people between the ages of 12 and 24 who live in the Bellingen Shire.  Young people can be nominated for a variety of reasons including their participation in a community or sporting group, having a particular talent, displaying high levels of commitment and enthusiasm or for positive qualities such as being caring and compassionate.

The young people who are nominated will be profiled for this feature.  They will be asked a range of questions which will draw attention to their ideas and the issues which concern them.  The feature will serve to increase community awareness of these issues and identify ways the community can better support our local young people. 

Young people can be nominated by completing a nomination form available from the BSYS office, Council Grounds, or here: Youth Week Feature 2009 Nomination Form

Completed nomination forms can be returned to BSYS or emailed to bsys@bnc.org.au.
