Community Care and www.communitycare.co.uk are seeking the views of all our readers and users to compile a national list of the Top 20 most influential people in the social care sector.

We want to recognise the significant people within social care who have made outstanding contribution to the sector and are seeking your thoughts.

To make your vote count, all you need to do is email clare.jerrom@rbi.co.uk with your list of the top five people who you believe have made their mark in the social care field and the reasons behind your nominations. We will collect the nominations and compile a list of the Top 20 with the most votes.

The nominees must be:-

• currently working in the sector

• working for any specialism or agency

• recognised nationally for their work

All nominations should be emailed by Tuesday 1st February and our list will be published at www.communitycare.co.uk on Thursday 3rd February.
