The Little Vikings Awards are back! It’s the only awards programme that rewards the best of York for kids and their families, from classes to places to eat, attractions to days out and much more. With so much to choose from, the Little Vikings Awards point families to the things that are worth seeking out.
But we need your help! We’re asking you to nominate your favourite things to do and places to go in York by midnight on 15th October 2016. After that, we’ll put together the shortlists – announced in our Christmas issue – and you can then vote for your favourites. The winners will be announced in the new year. All nominations must be made online through our handy form, and you can nominate in as many or as few categories as you like. All the categories are set out below.
