Social workers have three days left to put themselves forward for the 2015 Social Worker of the Year Awards. The deadline for entries is 5pm on Friday 24 July.

The awards are open to social work teams and practitioners in England and include 17 different categories across children’s and adult services.

James Rook, managing director of the awards’ headline sponsor, Sanctuary Social Care, said: “If you have a colleague who goes above and beyond the call of duty, nominate them for an award before it is too late and help them receive the recognition they deserve.”

The winners will be announced on Friday 27 November at an awards ceremony in London. To enter download an entry form from the social work awards website.
