The search is underway to seek out and reward young people from all walks of life who have faced adversity, demonstrated bravery, shown courage, and those who have cared for others. The Stagecoach Theatre Arts Awards and InterAct, part of the Stagecoach Charitable Trust, will acknowledge and reward children’s achievements during 2010 at a special reception hosted by Culture Minister, Ed Vaizey MP, at the House of Commons, on Tuesday 9th November 2010.
Guests at the Stagecoach Awards Launch
Throughout the years, Stagecoach has been aware of a number of students who have displayed enormous courage and endurance: students who have suffered bereavement, family break up, accidents and illness and who have faced circumstances where they have been required to become carers. The Stagecoach Theatre Arts Awards will recognise and reward these inspirational children.
