Rising Stars

Introducing Orbit South’s ‘Rising Stars’ Awards

We have £5000 to give away in a new awards scheme for young people.

We want to promote and celebrate the many talents and positive achievements of younger Orbit South residents from across the region. The new ’Rising Stars’ awards are designed for young people, up to and including 16 year olds, who need small amounts of money to help them take the next steps towards achieving a personal goal.

The awards will be used to support young people taking up and participating in cultural, artistic, educational and sporting activities, to pay for short courses, tuition or coaching fees as well as participate in one-off trips, summer schemes and other similar activities.

The ‘Rising Stars’ award is open to children of residents of Orbit South Housing Association.
