Young people, youth workers and community organisations were recognised as Camden marked Youth Celebration Week with an event celebrating children and young people's achievements, creativity and contributions across the borough.

Held at Regent High School on 4 November 2026, the event brought together finalists and winners of the annual Camden Youth Safety Multi-Media Awards and the Camden Youth Awards, alongside performances from Remix Dance, based at the Old Diorama Arts Centre, and the Somers Town Youth Centre Band.

Now in its sixth year, the Camden Youth Safety Multi-Media Awards invite children and young people to explore themes of youth safety through film, podcasting, drama, writing, art and design. The competition was established following the recommendations of Camden's Youth Safety Taskforce and provides a platform for young people to share their experiences, perspectives and ideas for creating safer communities.

The event also celebrated the winners of the Camden Youth Awards, which recognise the inspiring achievements of young people, the dedication of youth workers, and the impact of voluntary and community organisations supporting young people across Camden.
