IT’S not just Ant and Dec who’re up for a People’s Choice award this year.

For the first time family members, service users, social workers and colleagues alike have the opportunity to nominate an exceptional member of NEAS’ staff to take home the top prize in a new category at this year’s Star Awards.

The Star Awards are the North East Autism Society’s annual staff awards ceremony. Until this year the winners of each category could all only receive nominations from other NEAS staff but this year we want YOU to be able to pay tribute to the amazing men and women who work with you or your loved ones.

And if you are a professional working with NEAS and its service users – you can nominate too. Whether you are a social worker, driver, medical professional or advocate, if you know a deserving member of staff from NEAS, complete a form today.

Unlike the other categories, the People’s Choice award has its own simplified nomination form and is open for anyone with a professional connection to a member of staff at NEAS, to make a nomination.

PLUS: as one of the two most highly coveted awards on the night, both The Chairman’s Award and the People’s Choice Award come with certificates, a trophy AND a luxury prize.+

You can:

• Encourage family and friends to nominate online
• Ask a member of staff at the school, college, farm or day services for a nomination form or click here to download a form
• Let professional colleagues know about the award and direct to our website to nominate
• Nominate as many NEAS staff as you like 

NB ** all awards can be anonymous so the person nominated will not know who necessarily who put them forward. Judges will take into consideration correctly completed application forms AND the number of entries each person receives. This means the more you encourage awards’ nominations, the more entries we will receive, the more chance your choice for the People’s Award has of winning! **

+The People’s Choice special prize will be provided via sponsorship. NEAS is not paying for this gift.

Closing date for application is Friday, 10th February at 4.30pm
