Care at Home and Housing Support Awards 2022 – Deadline Extended

The Scottish Care team has taken the decision to extend the entry deadline for our 2022 Care at Home & Housing Support Awards.

The new deadline is close of play on Friday 25 February 2022.

This is the perfect opportunity to recognise the workforce in this sector who work tirelessly day and night to allow people to live independently in their own homes. So, if you have any individuals or teams in mind, please take your time to put them forward.

There are 10 different award categories that you can nominate in:

  • Emerging Talent Award
  • Care Services Coordination/Administration Award
  • Care Learning Award
  • Leadership Award
  • Outstanding Achievement Award
  • Care Worker of the Year
  • Palliative & End of Life Care Practise Award
  • Technology & People Award
  • Provider of the Year
  • Positive Impact Award

For the awards ceremony itself, we are hoping to have an in-person ceremony hosted by Pop Idol winner and presenter, Michelle McManus and Scottish Care’s CEO, Dr Donald Macaskill on the evening of Friday 13th May 2022 at Radisson Blu, Glasgow. However, please note that this may be subject to change depending on Government Covid-19 guidelines at the time of the event. More details to follow on the awards ceremony.
