THE
JUDGES

Judging for the 2019 Social Worker of the Year Awards will take place in September, when a panel of judges will decide on this year’s finalists and winners.

The judging panel is made up of:

• Leading industry professionals; invited to join the panel based upon their expertise within the social work profession
• Former care leavers and people who have received support from social workers.
• Representatives from some of our sponsors (to avoid any potential conflicts of interest they do not judge the category that
  they are supporting)
• Peers and colleagues (we invite a select number of winners from the previous year to join our judging panel for a year)

All judges kindly give up their time on a voluntary basis.
