Discover the JAS Award

JAS Award Information and Activity Afternoon

Looking for a simple, flexible way to recognise and celebrate the achievements of the young people you work with?

Join us for an informal and interactive afternoon to learn more about the JAS Award (Join in Award Scheme) – an internationally recognised, highly accessible award programme designed to encourage, capture and celebrate personal achievement.

Suitable for all ages and abilities, the JAS Award can be used across a wide range of settings including schools, youth groups, community organisations, outdoor learning programmes and support services. Its flexible structure allows participants to work towards goals that are meaningful to them, building confidence, motivation and a sense of achievement along the way.

One of the great strengths of JAS is that it can be integrated into activities you are already delivering. Whether participants are developing life skills, engaging in outdoor learning, volunteering, creative projects, sports, wellbeing activities, environmental action or community involvement, JAS provides a simple framework to recognise progress and success.

During the session you'll:

Learn how the JAS Award works.
Explore how it can be used in your setting.
Try out some practical activities.
Hear examples of how organisations are already using JAS.
Meet other practitioners and share ideas.
