'We want to celebrate incredible work happening in Scarborough' - care workers invited to enter national awards
Nominations for the national Markel Third Sector Care Awards are now open to health and care workers in Scarborough and beyond.
Whether working for a small community group or a larger organisation, nominations for the Care Awards are open for all not-for-profit workers in the sector.
Founded by Care Management Matters (CMM) and developed with the National Care Forum, the Markel Third Sector Care Awards recognise individuals and organisations that bring about impact in their communities – celebrating hard work, dedication, innovation and excellence.
Simon Johnston, UK Marketing Director at event sponsor Markel, said: “Behind every thriving community are people and organisations working tirelessly to make a difference. Now, we want to celebrate the incredible work happening in Scarborough.”


"We’re looking for inspiring individuals and organisations whose dedication is making a genuine difference in their communities to give them the recognition they deserve.”
Whether supporting the homeless or working in a care home, Scarborough residents are encouraged to enter themselves or nominate someone else to the 13 available categories, free of charge.
Nominations close on November 13.
Those shortlisted will then be invited to the awards ceremony on the April 30, 2027, which will be held at Birmingham Town Hall.
Lisa Werthmann, Director at CMM, added: “I’d encourage everyone across the sector to get involved by nominating someone who deserves to be celebrated.”
"By sharing these stories and recognising one another, we can make this year’s awards a truly memorable celebration of the remarkable people behind the sector.”
