Inspiring Volunteering Awards 2011: Dominic Jukes from Canongate Youth Project

Canongate Youth Project (CYP) has been in existence since 1977 and has gradually developed over the years from a project offering specialised services to a relatively small group of teenagers into an organisation offering a broad range of services.

Dominic Jukes has been a regular volunteer with the Wednesday Youth Club (12-14 years) for nearly three years, not only committing three hours per week but also contributing innovative programme ideas and working effectively as a team player through difficult periods within the youth club.

In addition to his commitment to the Wednesday Club, Dominic is constantly thinking about ways in which he can help support the Project. Dominic has also engaged in fundraising activities which involved marathon running, and has also committed time to two Project residential trips, including a week-long residential to the Island of Mull.
