Bristol Young Heroes Awards 2021 - Overview

2021 Bristol's Young Heroes have had their bravery and hard work recognised and celebrated at a star-studded awards ceremony.
On Friday 1st October over 300 guests gathered at We The Curious for a glitzy gala evening to celebrate the 2021 Bristol Young Heroes Awards and see the winners announced. Hosted by former BBC Bristol presenter Emma Britton, the event saw 12 awards given out for astonishing acts of compassion, good deeds and courage.
The night was truly spectacular, and fitting with the carnival theme. We saw a wonderful performance from one of our finalists; Razzamataz and an engaging display of Samba drummers and dancers from our friends at Bristol Samba.
Three finalists from each category attended the event as guests of honour. The winning young heroes were announced on the night and presented with a trophy to commemorate their achievement.
