3:22pm Wednesday 28th March 2012 in Streatham
SYCT won Low Budget Project of the Year at the Hollis Sponsorship Awards 2012. The project combined volunteering and DIY by young people aged 14-17 to learn vocational trade and building skills on the job by committing to fix local youth club and community buildings in need of essential repairs.
Developed by The Co-Sponsorship Agency, in partnership with A4e, London Youth, Pimlico Plumbers, Inspired and Wickes, the VIY project was successfully piloted at the start of 2011 at Streatham Youth and Community Trust.
