TIS is delighted to invite entries across eight categories for the TIS National Excellence Awards 2021, in association with the Scottish Government.
The awards recognise and celebrate housing organisations; staff; volunteers; tenants; residents; and community groups who are leading the way and making a difference within the Scottish social housing sector.
Last year, TIS received a multitude of applications showcasing the incredible achievements that took place during one of the most challenging times in recent history, and as we move into a recovery phase it is more important than ever to celebrate resilience; ingenuity; and commitment demonstrated across the sector.
Categories honour excellence in everything from partnership working and scrutiny practice, to digital innovation and community regeneration. Hotly anticipated, the awards offer a seal of approval for the most outstanding work. A full list of the 2021 categories is listed below:
