Make a difference in your community – fantastic prizes on offer in this year’s Lifestyle competition

A competition for young people to win exciting prizes by making a difference in their community has been launched for the second year running.

Launch of Lifestyle

The Lifestyle competition is open to school children aged between 10 and 16 across York and North Yorkshire who want to do something positive for their community during the summer holidays.

In return for helping their community, contestants will get the chance to win a host of prizes including PLG adventure holidays and mountain bikes.

Last year’s winners include Team Community Spirit who raised funds for their local boxing club in Acomb, The Green Team who launched a campaign to re-use and recycle in York, Team Ice who organised the clean up of their local park in Sherburn in Elmet and Eastfield Youth Council from the Scarborough area who cleaned up The Dell and devised a campaign to encourage people not to drop litter.

This year’s project was launched at Westfield Primary School in York with the help of Minster FM’s presenter “Griffo”.
