If you know a person, team or organisation who deserves a  Scottish Social Services Award, make sure you get your nomination in on time.

It’s really easy to apply and SSSA are actively encouraging short and simple entries.

With ten new categories such as ‘silo buster’, ‘the untold story’ and ‘head above the parapet’ the awards have been designed to recognise innovation and excellent practice across the sector.

Shortlisted entrants will be invited to join The Minister for Childcare and Early Years, Mark McDonald and Sally Magnusson at a special afternoon tea ceremony at Crieff Hydro on 13 June 2017.  

Launched by the Social Work Services Strategic Forum, a partnership set up to create and deliver a vision for high quality and effective social services, the Scottish Social Services Awards will celebrate individuals, teams and organisations making a positive difference to peoples’ lives.

Time is counting down to the deadline to enter.  Make sure you get your entry in before 6pm on Tuesday 28 February 2017 to be in with a chance of being part of these inaugural awards.
