There has been a record number of entries for this year's awards.

Tipp youth groups want your vote

Young people from Céim Eile Youthreach in Templemore, Clonmel Youth Training Centre, Roscrea Youthreach, Youthreach Cappawhite, Carrick on Suir NYP, Fethard & Killenaule Youth Project, Thurles Youth Project and Tipp Town Youth Project are calling on their local communities to help them win a national award as part of the Irish Cancer Society’s X-HALE Youth Awards. This year’s awards have seen a record number of entries from youth groups across Ireland.

 

 


 

The groups have submitted films that encourage young people to be smoke free into the X-HALE Short Film Competition. They are calling on people in Tipperary to show their support and view their film online so they can be in the running to win one of the top awards on offer.


 

Céim Eile Youthreach, Clonmel Youth Training Centre, Roscrea Youthreach, Youthreach Cappawhite, Carrick on Suir NYP, Fethard & Killenaule Youth Project, Thurles Youth Project and Tipp Town Youth Project all have an opportunity to win the public vote by getting the most views of their short film. They want people in Tipperary to log on to www.cancer.ie/xhale2019 and view their films between now and July 2nd. The groups will also be running a community campaign to drum up local support and the entry with the most views will win the Online Award, which also includes a prize for the youth group.
