ROYaL Global Awards of Excellence 2025 – Sponsor National Youth Awards
About Us
ROYaL – Raising Our Youth As Leaders – is a flagship initiative delivered by Taking Positive Steps Foundation, an award-winning community organisation with over a decade of experience supporting vulnerable children, families, and professionals across the UK. The ROYaL Global Awards of Excellence is a youth-led, values-driven programme that identifies, supports, and celebrates outstanding young people aged 10–25 from diverse and underrepresented communities.
The Opportunity
The ROYaL Global Awards 2025 is more than an event — it’s a powerful youth movement. Taking place during Black History Month in October 2025, the ceremony celebrates resilience, creativity, and leadership among young people who are often excluded from mainstream platforms — including those from racially minoritised, care-experienced, and low-income backgrounds.
Your Benefit as a Sponsor
As a sponsor, your brand will be associated with equity, aspiration, and social impact. You’ll benefit from:
• Logo & brand placement across all print, digital, and media channels
• On-stage visibility and award presentation opportunities
• Recognition in press releases, newsletters, and social media (over 1,500+ reach)
• VIP tickets and networking opportunities with community leaders, educators, and change-makers
• Bespoke content creation, including video highlights featuring your brand’s contribution
• A lasting legacy of investing in future leaders and changemakers
We are looking to build meaningful partnerships with brands that value youth empowerment, inclusion, education, and innovation.
Partner with us and help shine a light on the young people shaping tomorrow’s world.
