Entry Guidance.
How to submit nominations.
The mental health awards.
Before completing your application ensure you understand the category for which you are applying to. Referring to this throughout your application will help meet the category’s requirements. Use this information as a basic outline for your application. Ensure any evidence included within your application is in reference to the appropriate category.
Giving context.
Giving context to your application regarding your nominee is important. This should be done in the ‘introductory’ space at the beginning of the application. Supporting statements about the nominee should be included within this section. Beyond this point, the application should be primarily focussed on the chosen category and what the nominee has in place to support this.
Supporting information.
Including information and supporting statements about the efforts of your nominee and ways in which they go ‘above and beyond’ in the chosen category. Providing information about what motivates your nominee to go ‘above and beyond’ also provides context.
Providing evidence.
Providing evidence of any outcomes from your nominees’ work is a great way to add supporting information about how your approach to a cause is having an effect.
Evidence can include (but is not limited to):
- Statements or testimonies from people
- Statistical evidence with information which measures change
- Evidence of goals or targets reached
- Discussing future aspirations to expand the focus of the nominee is also important
You are strengthening the application by ensuring you are outlining the impact and outcomes of your efforts.
