Youth Awareness Day 2025

Youth Awareness Day 2025 – Thursday 16th October

We’re proud to be supporting Youth Awareness Day 2025, an important campaign led by High Sheriff Jane Trowbridge, which champions youth-led action across Shropshire.

This initiative highlights the importance of listening to young people and recognising the challenges they face — from mental health struggles and the cost-of-living crisis to the lack of safe spaces and opportunities to grow.

At Thomas Adams School, we’ll be marking the day with a series of fun fundraising activities:

• Tuck Shop and Milkshake Stand at break time

• Prize Bingo at lunchtime

Students are encouraged to bring some cash if they wish to take part.

Please note: This is NOT a non-uniform day.

Every pound raised will go directly into youth-led grants, where young people themselves decide how the money is spent to support their peers.

Together, we’re helping to raise awareness, promote positive change, and empower the next generation of leaders across Shropshire
