International Drag Day founder, Adam Stewart has been a recipiant of some recognition.

On Monday he received call from Birmingham Pride Ball telling him that he had been nominated for the Youth Achievement Award as part of the Midland Zone Awards for his work for International Drag Day. However at this stage it was just a nomination and wasn’t a definite for the award, although later this week on Wednesday he received another call letting him know that he had been shortlisted for the award so would either win or be the first or second runner up.

This involves him attending the Birmingham Pride Ball this Friday to find out if he has won, however he is delighted to have been nominated, he said:

I was so thrilled to get the call, couldn’t believe I had been nominated for the award. I very much look forward to going to the Pride Ball and whatever happens I will be really happy and very proud that I received the recognition to start with.

Let’s hope it pans out well for him, we will let you know via our twitter page and this blog the outcome of the night. You can follow him on twitter @adam_stewart to find out on the night if he wins.
