Gower College Swansea is delighted to announce that it will once again be sponsoring this year's Child of Wales Awards.
As sponsor of the Outstanding Charity Award, the College is proud to support an event that recognises the courage, resilience, compassion and determination demonstrated by young people in communities across the country.
Kelly Fountain, Chief Executive at Gower College Swansea, said:
“We are delighted to continue our partnership with the Child of Wales Awards and to once again play a part in supporting such an important and inspirational event.
“As a College, we are passionate about supporting our communities and celebrating the achievements of young people, so the values of the Child of Wales Awards align incredibly well with our own. It is a privilege to be involved and to help shine a light on the remarkable children and young people who are making such a positive difference across Wales."
This year’s awards will take place at the prestigious Swansea Arena on Friday 2 October, bringing together children, families, charities, organisations and supporters from across Wales for an evening dedicated to celebrating the extraordinary achievements of young people.
Gower College Swansea will also have a strong presence at the event, with its Travel and Tourism learners supporting the red carpet as part of the Selfie Squad.
The learners - Owen Evans, Keira-Lee Bellew, Jessica Davies, Lily Fox, Andrei Manciu and Skye Owen-Williams - will play a key role in helping guests capture their special moments on the evening, gaining valuable hands-on experience of working at a major event.
Leah Joseph, Curriculum Lead for Travel and Tourism, said:
"This is such a great experience for our learners. It gives them the opportunity to understand how large events work and really helps to enrich their programme. We are delighted to be asked to support the Child of Wales Awards once again."
The opportunity provides Gower College Swansea learners with an insight into the organisation and delivery of a high-profile event, while allowing them to put their communication, customer service and event-management skills into practice.
