The President's Award is Ireland's very own National Challenge Award, the country's most prestigious and respected individual award programme, and a challenge from the President of Ireland, to Ireland's young people - the nation's future.
There are three different types of award that can be earned - Bronze, Silver and Gold. The minimum age for the bronze award is 15. It is earned over a minimum period of 6 months.
There are 4 different activity areas. To earn an award, you must take part in each of the 4 areas. You might decide to build on an activity you've tried in the past. Each participant must participate in at least one new activity to earn an award.
