We’re incredibly proud to share that Dalgarno Trust received a Special Mention in the “Children and Youth Service of the Year” category at this year’s Young K&C Achievement Awards, a celebration of the outstanding organisations and individuals working to improve the lives of young people across Kensington and Chelsea.

This recognition means a lot to us, especially as we were shortlisted in multiple categories, including:

  • Best Work on Community Safety and Youth Justice

  • Best Work Supporting Health and Wellbeing

  • Children and Youth Service of the Year

Although we didn’t take home a trophy this time, receiving a Special Mention as one of the top contenders in such an important field is a huge honour, and a reflection of our team’s dedication and the impact of our Youth Programme in the local community.

We were also delighted to see individual members of our team nominated:

  • Boutayna, our Youth Programme Manager, was nominated for Leader of the Year.

  • Moutaz, our Senior Boxing Coach and long-time member of our youth team, was nominated for Youth Worker of the Year.

A big thank you to Young K&C for this recognition and for the work you do bringing together organisations that care deeply about our borough’s young people.

Having proudly won awards in the past and now being recognised once again, we remain committed to growing, learning, and delivering the best possible support to the children and young people of North Kensington and beyond.

We are honoured to be part of this incredible network of youth service providers, and we’ll continue to show up, stand out, and serve with heart.
