Award terms and Conditions

Suffolk already has some fantastic projects in action, and this initiative is about joining them up as well as developing new possibilities. The awards will play a key part in this process by celebrating our best achievers at a high profile conference and identifying Champions to fulfil a mentoring role. The awards will run on an annual basis, being announced in February to reward achievements in the previous calendar year.
