Four Marlborough young people are the recipients of the 2019 Youth Civic Awards presented by the Marlborough District
Council:
• Martinett Gouws
• Joshua Leota
• Shannon McLean
• Luke Paul
The Awards were set up on the initiative of the Marlborough District Council’s Youth Council.
Marlborough Mayor John Leggett says the awards are a positive way for Council to support and encourage young people
who’re making a significant contribution to our community.
“It’s inspiring to read the endorsements from the various groups and organisations where these young people give their
time and energy, and it’s reassuring to see teenagers of such a high calibre continuing to emerge from our region.”
