Women in Housing: Leaders 2020 is completely free to enter.
The entry form consists of:
- General questions about the nominated individual
- Specific examples related to the nominated individual
In addition to answering these questions, you will need to provide:
- Two high quality horizontal photographs (minimum 300dpi) relevant to your entry to be used in publicity materials
Anyone with any connection to social housing – including tenants as well as professionals – can be nominated, whatever their level of seniority or experience. We want to celebrate leaders, innovators and change makers across our sector.
We are seeking women who:
- Have had a demonstrable impact within their organisation or area, and potentially beyond
- Excel in their roles but have also gone above and beyond to make a difference
- Have showed a real commitment to working with others to achieve collective success, including potentially helping others into the sector and/or advancing within it
All entries are submitted via an online entry form here.
You do not have to complete your entry in one sitting. Partially complete entries can be saved for later and edited until the entry deadline.
You may submit as many entries as you like, but please ensure that the entry statement is carefully tailored to the person you are nominating.
After starting your first category, you may enter another category by clicking ’Make another application’ on the left-hand side of the page.
