Last week, we had the pleasure of celebrating our incredible team members, Shineade, Nuro, Rama, and Zara, for their outstanding achievements at the H&F Council Civic Honours Awards! It was great to see the recognition they deserved for their impact within the White City community and WEST Youth Zone.

Shineade Burton, our Volunteer Coordinator and Just for Girls Session Lead, was celebrated for her exceptional individual contributions towards building a stronger, safer, and kinder community. Her impactful work, both at local school Ark Swift Primary Academy and within WEST Youth Zone, has left an indelible mark on the lives of young people, their parents and fellow colleagues. Shineade’s commitment to empowering our youth throughout her career is truly inspiring.

Meanwhile, Nuro, Rama, and Zara were acknowledged as Parent & Carer Champions, a testament to their unwavering dedication and support for their families and the Hammersmith and Fulham community. Their efforts match up greatly with our mission here at WEST Youth Zone, where we strive to empower young people.

These outstanding individuals serve as role models for our young members and colleagues at WEST. We couldn’t be prouder of their achievements and the positive impact they continue to make in our organisation and beyond.

To Shineade, Nuro, Rama, and Zara: your contributions are invaluable, and we are immensely grateful for all that you do. Congratulations once again on this well-deserved recognition! Let’s continue to inspire young people together.
