The Young Volunteer of the Year Award recognises those young people who have made a significant voluntary contribution to the BMC and its commitment to supporting participation in climbing, hill walking and mountaineering.

The award was established in 2018, and the first recipients were Nina Stirrup and Dan Lane.

Dan Lane, guidebook supporter and National Council rep.

Nina has been a regular supporter of BMC youth meets, and Dan has contributed to the work of the Guidebook Committee and is a National Council rep for the Cymru North Wales area.
