MOTIVATED to help other young people find their way in life helped Natasha Price clinch the Young Achiever Of The Year Award.

The 18-year-old from Orford has spent her spare time working with young people while also working towards a Level two in childcare at Warrington Collegiate.

Natasha said: “I’m made up with the win.

“It’s a big achievement but I am there to help them on their way because other people have been there to help me.

“I think there is a bad impression of young people and I want to show they are not what they think.”

Natasha herself started getting involved in community project when she was younger and lacked in confidence and had a low school attendance level.

Now though she puts in lots of her spare time to help other young people like herself find a way to make a difference in their own lives through sessions and on a one to one basis.

Her nominee also said: “Tash always puts others before themselves and sees the good in everyone and despite her own problems never lets them affect how much time and effort she gives. She deserves this recognition. She’s the best.”
