Roger Davy has recently retired after 34 years on the Bradford Youth and Adult Magistrate Courts. He has been a keen advocate of the development of the Youth Offending Team and used his time on the national magistrates youth panel to advocate our work in Bradford.

Roger has a keen interest in young people and has supported our education programme particularly the development of ‘The Academy’ and the Showcase events at the Alhambra Theatre.

Roger has made a donation to help motivate and encourage young people to continue their education and to achieve their ambitions. The special award will be made to the young person who has most impressed the organisers of the bi annual YOT/Connexions Bradford achievement event.

Roger has said Magistrates are not a social workers and we walk a fine line between up holding the law and pointing young people in the right direction – so they can improve their lives!

The first award was made at the Award Ceremony on 24 November 2008 when Roger made the award accompanied by his wife Barbara.
