The Saltire Awards are a national awards scheme recognised by the Scottish Government for young people aged between 11 and their 26th birthday involved in Voluntary Work within Scotland. The Saltire Awards ensure young people get the recognition of their volunteering they deserve. In Clackmannanshire, Saltire Awards are overseen by CTSI, and we are here to help with training, queries and problem solving.
Saltire Award certificates are based on the number of hours volunteered and range from 10-hour certificates to 500 hours and beyond! The Saltire Awards are progressive meaning you can achieve awards over four levels: The Challenge, The Approach, The Ascent and The Summit.
The Summit Award differs from the others in that those Saltire registrants who have completed a minimum of 200 hours of volunteering can be nominated by their Volunteer Manager for the award. The number of Summit Awards issued in each local authority is limited to a small number each year, with up to 10 Summit Awards issued in Clackmannanshire annually.
As well as achievement certificates, you also get Young Scot Reward Points that entitle you to loads of benefits.
The Saltire Award online account portal allows you to find and apply for opportunities, add hours and access and print certificates. You can register for an account by visiting the Saltire Awards website and clicking ‘Sign up now’ towards the bottom of the home page.
