Cadet Vocational College is delighted to announce that nominations for the 2027 Westminster Award are now open.
The Westminster Award is the most prestigious accolade presented by Cadet Vocational College, recognising young people who have made an exceptional contribution to their youth organisation, school, workplace or community.
Each year, volunteers, leaders, instructors and peers nominate young people whose actions inspire others. We are looking for individuals who demonstrate outstanding character, resilience, leadership and a commitment to making a positive difference.
Do you know a young person who consistently goes above and beyond? Someone who supports others, overcomes challenges, leads by example or makes a meaningful difference in their community?
If so, now is the time to recognise them.
Successful nominees begin an unforgettable journey that includes leadership development opportunities, unique experiences, nationally recognised qualifications and the chance to be recognised on a national stage. The journey culminates at the House of Lords, where finalists celebrate their achievements and the overall winner is announced.
