Junior Young Friends - Awards

Awards

On the final day, usually during lunch, "The Committee" hands out awards to participants. Many are associated with the in-jokes and popular themes which have evolved throughout the weekend, but there are a some recurring awards, including:

• The Sex-God Award
  • Junior
  • Senior
• The Sex-Goddess Award
  • Junior
  • Senior
• The Martha Award
• The Free Spirit Award
• The Sean Award
• The Paul and Fran Award

The number of awards presented usually ensures that every participant receives at least one award. It has been suggested that the awards can be used on CV's and UCAS personal statements.

In addition to the above awards, some participants have achieved degrees from the University of Lailah.

At the moment, only two JYF'ers hold degrees from this institution:

• Sam was the first to graduate in December 2004 with a Mb Chb. At present, degrees from the University of Lailah are not GMC recognised. Sam specialises in Accident and Emergency Medicine at JYF.
• Lorna has a BA in Snow Appreciation. Most of this work was completed at Selly Oak in March 2005.
