Every day, stories about disadvantaged young people, rising street crime and educational failure hit the headlines. It makes for dismal reading.
The RSA Youth Award for Innovation is designed for young people who want to achieve something new for themselves and their communities. The Award will help to put project ideas involving groups of young people with their supporters into action.
