The 2018 CIH Scotland Excellence Awards, which recognise and celebrate the creativity, passion and innovation of housing organisations and individuals across the breadth of the sector in Scotland, are now open for applications.

These awards are open to housing teams, private landlords and sector leaders across Scotland and this year’s event will feature four brand new categories, including excellence in communication, alongside the return of some of our more popular event categories.

The closing date for applications is Friday 7 September 2018 and the winners will be announced first hand at a special ceremony on Friday 2 November 2018 at the EICC in Edinburgh.

CIH Scotland chair Esther Wilson said: “The Excellence Awards are the biggest and best awards in the Scottish housing sector and give you the chance to showcase the outstanding work you are doing.”

“We want as many organisations and individuals as possible to get involved in this year’s event and to join us in celebrating all that the amazing people who work in housing do.”

“We have refreshed our awards this year, adding some exciting new categories to reflect the changing nature of our work. As a result, there is a category to suit everyone working at every level of the housing sector and we look forward to seeing the applications from across the sector.”
